Exmouth Diving Centre Whale Shark report - Friday 30 April 2010

A great end to April! Central Station was buzzing with schools of small to medium fish, a few green turtles and a single hawksbill turtle, several white tip reef sharks and some very cool, very small octopus. It was an excellent start to the day!

The whale sharks in Exmouth for 2010 have been super and today we had another day with our first whale shark well before 11am! We swam with three different whale sharks today and had very long swims with each one. I don't think we had less than four drops on any one shark and eventually everyone was so tired they voted to have one last whale shark swim and then head in for some lunch and relaxing snorkeling.

We also had another eagle ray swimming directly under one of our whale sharks. He stayed with the group for three or four minutes and then effortlessly glided out of sight.

Yet another fabulous day!
