Gansbaai, aka Shark Town, known for having the world’s densest population of Great White Sharks, faces a crisis when the sharks suddenly disappear. Follow the gripping story uncovering the town´s journey from disaster to revival and meet their unexpected saviours. While Jaws captivated audiences and established the Great White Shark as a formidable villain, it also sparked a global fascination with these apex predators. This fascination led to the growth of a local shark cage diving industry which supported the small South African fishing community of Gansbaai. It also promoted world-first scientific research and marine conservation.
