Daily Trip 17 June 2012 – Fathers day | Great White Shark Diving South Africa

Location: Channel Mouth
SST: 14.6 Celcius
Visibility: 6m
No sharks: 13

Today we had predominently male sharks – perhaps they knew it was fathers day! Due to a North westerly wind picking up we were limited as to where we could dive , so we setlled on anchor in lthe lee of Dyer island just outside the mouth of Shark Alley. It seems that some of the sharks we have been working with on the adjacent side of the island days before, made the same decision.. much to our delight! We saw a nice range of sizes with smaller sub adult sharks beginning the trip and larger sharks up to 4 meters long ending the trip for us. Everyone had plenty of dive time, most people dived twice! Our very own ecologist Nicola Stellueto was joined by his father on board who thoroughly enjoyed the view from the spacious top deck of our vessel Slashfin (see pics below). Another special Dyer Island winters trip!
