I feel like I'm repeating myself a lot this season, but we are just having wonderful Whale Shark Adventures so far! Today we had two different whale sharks, both were about 4m long and both were reasonably slow moving.
Our second whale shark was engulfed in millions of fish - tiny sparkling baitfish, bright yellow juvenile trevally, big remoras and a whole bunch of others, too. Sometimes this big ball of action would almost block out the view of the whale shark it would become so dense...and then it would expand again and we could see the whale shark emerge. Incredible to think that a whale shark's camouflage works so well when we are only 3m away from it and the water is clear & blue! It was also pretty amazing to suddenly have a big group of the school surround you as you snorkelled along.
