30 September 2016 | PROTEA BANKS

Current: medium – none (reverse)
Viz: 5 – 8m
Sea Temp: 22 degrees Celsius

Northern Pinnacle: On the reef we had about 10 Ragged Tooth Sharks staying around for our entire bottom time. We also had lots of reef fish and right before we started to multi- level we had 5 Round Ribbontail Rays playing around. Mid water we had 3 Oceanic Blacktip Sharks popping in and out.

As we got on the boat we had a very friendly bird being circled by a Oceanic Blacktip Shark keep us entertained for a while. On our way back we saw a fin in the distance. We got a little closer to check it out thinking it was a shark. We got in the water keeping our distance and found it was a HUGE SUNFISH!!!!! AMAZING!!!! It came closer giving us great opportunity for photos and stayed around for about 15 minutes!!!!!! WOW WOW WOW !!!!!
