Who wakes up early on a Sunday morning? Shark cage divers thats who! Slashfin was out on the water bright and early, launching into some calm conditions that would be seen to pick up a little later. The day started with a Cape Fur seal making a few passes by the cage before disappearing into the depths with the arrival of a Copper shark. Today yet again saw a number of larger (2.0m – 2.5m) females visiting throughout the two trips, the more commonly seen gender in this bay over the last few months. Some beautifully close passes and nice surface activity made for a great Sunday out on the sea.
