Day: February 9, 2012

We had an amazing time today on the boat! There were several sharks having a field day with the bait and decoy lines, which we use to attract the sharks attentions and not to feed them. We did have a couple of quests who found themselves suffering from “motion distress”, but they were happy to take the water taxi back to land after their dive. Our sharks ranged in size from 2.5m to big 3.5m animals. It was truly a great day, many jaw dropping moments…

Today had the possibility for disappointment because the sharks decided to keep as waiting longer than usual. However, we had a massive 4m male arrive to break the silence! Thereafter a frenzy of sharks arrived to keep us entertained, up to four at a time. We were fortunate to have some bottlenose dolphins arrive on the scene as an extra bonus. All and all the trip ended on a high note and I’m sure that’s the impression that will stay with the quests. Fantastic weather today!

 

Today was amazing visibility in the water. There was a large female shark present today who gave some fantastic launches out of the water! She was almost 4m in length, a real treat for the quests. The sharks were great and stayed around for a long time, which made the rotations in the cage very easy! Some very satisfied clients were on the boat today, incredible day!  Click on the link for the pictures…
