I will be traveling to South Africa the end of March for 10-14days. This is a short time compared to trips I have taken in the past. I usually go for 3 months min. My group would like to go Shark diving as well as see the sites South Africa has to offer. Any suggestion of where to go, stay, what airport to fly into, anything would be greatly appreciated!

For shark diving many people go to Gans Baai [fly to CapeTown]. The Saxon Inn in Gans Baai is a great place to stay [$60]. There is a lot to see around Capetown--check the LP guide.

If you want to get good advice, you need to provide a lot more information, other than just Shark diving. Interests, budget, previous visits to S.A. if any, what research you've already done. (I trust you've done some!)

Shark diving is best June to September. You may be disappointed in March.
As ArthurSA says, give us more info and we can be a lot more helpful. Cape Town is most people's starting point because there is so much to do and see, especially if you have only a short time.

In my opinion go to cape town , from there you are able to go anywhere , shark diving places well the one that I went on i am excited the wife and I had so much fun , still raving , went with a company called sharkzone you can email them check the site out
they said if we had a bigger group there was the option of a discount which other companys didn't do . we were treated like gold and had a wonderful time , you can even book the tour online :)
what else are your intrests? you so have to go to cape town dude , table mountain is an insane site
