Trip Summary: What a fantastic day! Today we have seen so many marine animals. On the first trip, many Bronze Whaler sharks surrounded the cage in just a few minutes after anchoring our boat Slashfin. Besides many sharks, a beautiful Cape Fur Seal and a massive short-tail stingray came to show them up. Additionally a beautiful and inquisitive Sevengill shark showed up. Our divers in the cage and on the boat had a great time admiring all the marin encounters so closely.
