This morning started a little on the slow side with a wait of just under two hours for our first shark to arrive. We had three juveniles show up to the boat in the end, all of which were quite shy in their behaviour but still happy to come up for us to have a look at every now and again! The second trip of the day were lucky enough to have a shark spotted on arrival back into the dive area which also happened to be a feisty little animal that spent a few minutes at the boat and then returned later on in the trip. The other sharks that were seen throughout the afternoon were also juveniles, it appears that there may not be too many larger sharks in the bay at the moment, however we still must remember that a little shark is still a shark…
