It was an extremely eventful trip today with lots to see. We were being invaded by swarms of blue bottles (only 3) and they made an interesting conversation topic for quite some time! Our infamous “Big Nemo” made an appearance to the delight of the crew, she really isn’t the pretty’s girl in the water, but she’s still fantastic! All our sharks were more or less 3.5 meters in length today except for our final shark of the day who was 4 meters in length. The sharks were not us energetic and jumpy as usual, but they compensated by giving some REALLY close passes by the cage. On our way back to harbour we were treated with a bryde’s whale sighting, these ‘small’ whales frequent this area very often and it is always a treat to see them! A great day…

We had an abundance of sharks today and some phenomenal passes by the cage! We weren’t kept waiting at all today, the sharks were very punctual for a change :)! The sharks varied in size today with the largest being 4 meters. We had guests from all over the world and that always makes it interesting to see how different people respond to these animals. We had some screams, laughter and even our “smaller” guests started to fall asleep. We sighted some box jellies in the water today which was an added bonus! A very experience rich trip…
