Depth: 10.0m + 9.7m + 10.3m
Visibility: 5.0m + 5.0m + 5.0m
Number of Sharks: 0 + 0 + 0
Conditions: Flat seas with a slight breeze and clear skies.

What a perfect day to be out on the water, some of the best conditions we have experience in some time. The swell felt non-existent, and a slight breeze was around helping to keep things a little cooler in the sun.

Once on anchor we had only minutes to wait when one of our guests called out shark, as a Copper shark approached from the back of the boat. We had a number of Copper sharks appearing throughout the trip and the good visibility allowed both those in the water and on the boat a great view of these animals and also a Short-tailed stingray gliding up from the depths every now and again.

The second trip of the day followed in a similar fashion with the great conditions continuing on as well as the great Copper shark activity. The Short-tailed stingray also made an appearance.

The shark sightings continued on into the afternoon with our third and final trip seeing sharks shortly after arriving back on anchor.

Unfortunately, no Great White sharks were seen today.
