Current: mild
Viz: 20m, a bit milky
Sea Temp: 23 degrees Celsius
DIVE 1 – Northern Pinnacles: Hardly any current so got time to explore the reef. Lots of reef fish and a Potato Bass. Then coming up had at least 3 Bull (Zambezi) and 3 Oceanic Blacktip sharks popping in and out of dive, for about 40 minutes! WOW, what a dive!
DIVE 2 – Southern Pinnacles: Again hardly any current, so lots of time spent on the reef, which was spectacular. Also has 1 Potato Bass and a Black Spotted Ray. In midwater we were then joined by 3 Oceanic Blacktip sharks which were very friendly, one that kept on coming in very close and showing off. The viz was a bit reduced from the first dive but the interaction with the Oceanic Blacktip sharks was INCREDIBLE!!!!
