Sardin Run

Shoal Big Fishes Sharks

South Africa also have the famous Sardine Run, where millions of sardines follow the cold winter currents moving north toward the warm Indian Ocean. A band of cold water gets pushed up the coast by changing weather patterns. This band funnels massive shoals of sardines up the East coast of South Africa which of course attracts predators. It starts in East London or Port Elizabeth but the hotspot is in Port St john. So besides lots of sardines this will be a great spot to see whales, dolphins, sharks and other fishes. The best time to see it is in June and July.
