DIVE 1 – Southern Pinnacles: Saw loads of reef fish as well as huge Big Eye Kingfish. Also 1 Round Ribbontail Ray hiding under a ledge. Mid water, we saw 5 different schools of Hammerhead sharks and then a friendly Remora on the safety stop. Great dive!!
DIVE 2 – Southern Pinnacles: Dropped in on a Giant Hammerhead shark with a school of Scalloped Hammerhead sharks nearby – what a great start! Loads of reef fish around the pinnacles as well a shoaling game fish. Drifted over some awesome pinnacles and overhangs.! Mid water we had one more school of Hammerhead sharks (100+), as well as a TIGER shark. On our safety stop, plenty of cool ‘jellies’ to look at. Then right at the end we were blessed with a super friendly and playful school of Dolphins with a baby. WOW! What a wonderful day of diving!!!
