DIVE 1 – Baited Shark Dive: Took us a while to get some sharks in but after a few minutes we had full blown action with at least 5 Zambezi (Bull) Sharks and 4 Oceanic Blacktip Sharks. Lots of Tuna, False Fusiliers and Remoras fighting for their share of the bait.
DIVE 2 – Southern Pinnacle:On our way down to the reef we had a Oceanic Blacktip Shark. The reef had beautiful reef fish, at least 6 Round Ribbontail Rays, a Eagle Ray and a Huge school of Barracuda. The Shark Action on the reef was insane. We had 5 Zambezi (Bull) Sharks, 2 Oceanic Blacktip Sharks and a Shoal of about 50 Hammerhead Sharks passed by. Mid water we had 3 Zambezi (Bull) Sharks popping in and out and a Manta Ray was spotted by one of the divers right before we got out the water.
