Current: medium
Viz: 10 – 15m
Sea Temp: 22 degrees Celsius
DIVE 1 – Southern Pinnacle: The reef had reef fish and gamefish all over including some Kingfish and False Fusiliers. While we were on the reef we had a Zambezi (Bull) shark and 2 Greater Hammerhead sharks. Right before we started to multi-level we had another Greater Hammerhead shark and an Oceanic Blacktip shark. Mid water we had 2 shoals of about 50 Hammerhead sharks each and at least 3 Oceanic Blacktip, 2 Copper and another 2 Zambezi (Bull) sharks … AMAZING day to start the day with so many sharks, making it hard to keep up!!!! WOW WOW WOW!!!
DIVE 2 – Southern Pinnacle: The reef was still as beautiful as the first dive with fish all over. Also a Potato Bass and a HUGE shoal of Bigeye Kingfish. While we were admiring the reef we had a Zambezi (Bull) shark. Mid water we had a Greater Hammerhead shark and 2 Oceanic Blacktip sharks. Lots of interesting Plankton and Jellyfish.
