Current: medium
Viz: 15m+ (water clean but overcast so grey down there)
Sea Temp: 21 degrees Celsius
DIVE 1 – Southern Pinnacle: Really chilled dive with two sets shoaling Hammerhead sharks on the reef – Hammerheads keeping deep, but lots and lots. As we came up we had very curious Oceanic Blacktip sharks popping in and out. Lots of interesting Plankton to keep us entertained.
DIVE 2 – Northern Pinnacle: Reef was stunning and with shoaling Hammerhead sharks which I managed to get under – AWESOME. Also two Musselcracker and a Rockcod seen on the reef. On the way up we had Oceanic Blacktip sharks showing interest. Also lots of Plankton.
Two really chilled dives, some sun would have completely brought the reef alive.
Breaching Humpback Whales and flying fish seen from the boat.
