Daily Trip Update, 28 November 2019

Today we had a later start to the day and the afternoon started off beautifully. With the sun shining brightly and our crew ready to set sail, everyone ready to see what mother nature had to offer. We had some awesome sightings today, from our Bronze Whaler sharks, shimmering in the sunlight in front of the shark cage diving vessels, to the seal population that was entertaining as always and showed off around the boat with their diving and acrobatics in and out the water. Our trips were both fortunate to have encountered two of our endangered species in the bay. The first trip got a glimpse of our little African Penguin on Dyer Island while the second trip had a view of our rarely sighted Humpback dolphins near the estuary. The day finished off beautifully as the sun was setting on the way back into the harbour, any day out at sea is so unique and special and we can’t wait to see what wildlife we will be lucky to see next!

It was so clear today that we could even see the shadows of the sharks under the water!

Did you know? Dorsal fins can be used to identify each individual shark!
