The fog that has plagued us for the last 2 days was still around this morning, casting itself across the coast line and shrouding everything it touched behind a wall of white. The first trip of the day started off well with a juvenile White Shark making itself known within 30 minutes of us arriving. We had many individuals visit during this trip including some impressively large sharks including the well known adult females “Ingrid” and “Malcolm X” and the newly named “Vanessa”! The second trip of the day was an exclusive for a family of four from the USA. We headed out straight away with the fog finally clearing thanks to a stronger westerly wind blowing it out. Shortly after anchoring we were greeted by a juvenile female and soon after a juvenile male White Shark, both of which stayed with us for the entirety of the trip. The third and final trip of the day launched with clear sunny skies, and had sharks around from the get go. “Malcolm X” decided to return this afternoon and grace us with her presence and we had some new additions for the day as well, many of which were on the larger size of 3.5m. A fantastic start to the week…
