An overcast sky meet us today but the rest of the weather conditions in the bay were fantastic! We had a slight wind to keep things fresh and little to no swell throughout the day as well as some improving visibility under the water. To add to the nice conditions on the water the shark activity went from good to even better as the day went on and the shark’s behaviour became more and more active. The morning trip had only a ten minute wait from anchoring till the first sharks turned up, allowing our divers just enough time to get into their wetsuits and prepare themselves for what was going to come next, ana eye to eye experience with a White shark! The activity at the start of the trip was abit slow but really picked up as the trip continued with some impressively large females turning up including “Vanessa” and a 4.5m beauty! The afternoon trip, an exclusive for two families visiting from America, started of with double the action as we arrived to the sight of not one but two sharks circling the cage we had left out early. We quickly got the group suited up and into the water so they wouldn’t miss out on any of the action, however the action continued throughout the trip as we had many of the sharks sticking around for the entire trip and new ones joining in the fun. Whilst we didn’t see any of the 4.0m+ sharks this afternoon the smaller individuals were showing us that size doesn’t matter and kept those jawsome views coming as they broke the surface multiple times! A fantastic day to be a shark cage diver with Marine Dynamics…
