Current: strong
Viz: 10 – 15m
Sea Temp: 21 degrees Celsius
DIVE 1 – Southern Pinnacle: The reef was beautiful with reef fish all over. Also huge shoals of Bigeye Kingfish and Bonito. Also 2 Potato Bass and a Parrotfish …lol. Mid water we had an Oceanic Blacktip shark with interesting Plankton and Jellyfish. A Greater Hammerhead shark was spotted briefly but not seen by everyone.
DIVE 2 – Northern Pinnacle: Passed over the caves but could not see in. Felt like we were flying with the current being so strong … Super fun!!! Also saw 2 Potato Bass. Mid water we had a Zambezi (Bull) shark and 3 Oceanic Blacktip sharks.
Whales, a Turtle and Flying fish seen from boat.
