23. Sharks leaping out of the water are a common sight off the point at Robberg, Plettenberg Bay, South Africa. My wife and I spent a few days in the fishermans hut at the Point, and witnessed many (+- 20 times) awesome sights. Definitely shark with dark uppers and light underside. One sighting (200m away)showed a good underside profile which definitely resembled the great white profile. Plenty of seal around, water depth some 20m.

21. Sorry guys, it's not a porpoise, dolphin, or whale. It's a Mako shark that was about 11 feet long. The jump shots are a little blurry because they were taken with an 85mm lens from about 400 yards away and cropped. There are more jump shots and close up photos of the shark on my website - www.riverandreef.com
