Today was not for the faint hearted! We had some interesting conditions yet it was still safe for us to head out so out we went. We had a bit of a wait for our first shark to show up but this allowed us to get everyone into their wetsuits and ready to dive. The first shark quickly came up swung by the cage and disappeared back to the depths. The choppy conditions the past 24 hours mean’t that the visibility that had been seen to improve the last few days had yet again decreased and we had a challenge seeing the sharks especially under the water, however with the arrival of more sharks we saw an increase in activity and some of the animals coming closer to the cage! “Mark the shark”, our little male juvenile with what is most likely propellor injuries to the dorsal fin, showed up for a quick visit. The shark most active around the boat today was none other than our feisty female in the bay at the moment “Little Lumpy”, who showed off some of those amazing leaps that she is known for! A big thanks to all those who came out to experience and enjoy the Great white sharks…
