We have become spoilt over the last few weeks in the fact that we haven’t been kept waiting for the sharks to arrive in quite some time. Today however they made us wait for some time, nevertheless they did eventually show up in all their splendour. The sharks gradually increased in size with the first shark of the day being about 1.7 meters in length and the last shark was a whopping 4.1 meters. One shark today deserves special mention for its behaviour; this shark was literally staring people in the faces and giving them a beautiful smile before heading off. She had the tip off her tail missing, so quite easy to recognise. I hope to see her again tomorrow…
