A gorgeous day today with some surprise visitors! We started our day at Central Station for a dive and snorkel and everywhere we looked there were turtles, turtles and more turtles. We also had huge schools of surgeonfish, fusiliers and golden trevally along with a smaller school of batfish.
WATER TEMP: 26C
VISIBILITY: 10m
CURRENT: very mild
SURGE: none
DEPTH: 16m
While looking for our first whale shark of the day we found some humpback whales making their way north along the coast so hung out with them for a little while. Later in the day we saw minke whales and then more humpbacks! At one stage a humpback came in very close to us as we were with a whale shark. Awesome!
We swam with four different whale sharks today. Our first whale shark was Chompy again - we love Chompy! Shark two was the one we saw the other day with the tag - and we saw him again as our last shark of the day. They ranged from about 4.5-6.5m today. Every whale shark was nice and slow and the water was beautifully clear and blue again. Just a magic day.
