WHAT A TRIP! We have something Great to Write about today! Our trip started off with some stunning copper sharks, with some great activity to start off with we had an excellent first dive. Then the stingrays started to appear a total of three today!! And then the stars themselves showed up, not one but TWO Great White Sharks! Our first white shark was a different shark from yesterday, at close to 4m, she was a stunning individual. She gave us some stunning passes and then up popped one of our all time favourite sharks! Mini Nemo!! We last saw this guy on the 23rd of march last year! He was stunning as usual with a little bit of growth on him, clocking in at 3.7m! He was mischievous as usual catching us out left right and centre with his sneaky vertical ascents! We had both sharks circling us for around 20 minutes this morning, and then sporadic activity from both through the remainder of the trip. Hopefully this is a sign that the white sharks are starting to march back in this month!
