Trip Summary: What a great day out at sea!! Our first trip started well with a few sightings of Bronze whaler sharks and a Seven-gill shark around the boat! Our divers on the next trip had some great sightings in the cage of our Seven-gill shark up close, who was very interactive around the boat!!! On our 2. trip we we did not have to wait long to see our first wildlife encounter! On our way to the anchor site, we spotted a mother and calf southern right whale, a beautiful sighting! On anchor the waiting time was long! But luckily last 30 minutes we got two Bronze Whaler sharks and two  Broadnose Sevengill sharks! thank to everyone for joining us today!
