What wonderful conditions for a day out on the water. Our hopes were that we would find the sharks just as wonderful…we were not disappointed! During this morning’s trip it took close to 30 minutes for our first shark to be spotted, however our patience was rewarded with the slowly approaching shadow turning into a very active juvenile shark with more to come soon after. Unfortunately visibility was a challenge today but thank fully with the help of Slashfin’s talented crew and the sharks willingness to come closer, those onboard we treated to some ‘jaw’ inspiring views and photo opportunities! Our second trip of the day saw sharks appear just after arriving and stick around the whole trip. The award for best moment on this trip and largest shark of the day goes to the 4.2m male Great White that showed up and cruised around exerting its dominance as it scared the smaller sharks out of its way. A day of shining skies and sharks…
