On the first trip-despite the chilly air temps-we  saw a stunning sunrise. We waited an hour and then the action started. The largest shark was just over 4m and we saw a range of different sizes and both genders. Trip 2 was incredible as the sun warmed up the sharks seemed more active rushing right up out of the water. A 4.2m female shark we know as Khaleesi stole the show. Trip 3 was also excellent- plenty of shark activity both Posidon and Sellendilloh sharks we helped satellite tag in 2012 appeared. A shy Albatross accompanied us throughout the day… just to top things off!
