10th April 2021-Sunny Saturday with Grey Nurse Sharks
Condition on top, improved considerably today, with the swell dropping overnight. Visibility had not improved at all although it was cleaner at the Arch compared to the other side of the island. Again a dirty layer of water is over the top of cleaner, deeper water.
On Dive 1, “2 Wild” with the certified divers, dived at Manta Arch with a count of 15 Grey Nurse Sharks in the Arch. Meanwhile on the other side of the Island, “Wildfin” took 2 groups of PADI Open Water students for their first dive. A turtle, heaps of fish and Wobbygongs and Dory’s were a treat.
Dive 2 was at the northern end of South Solitary for both grou.ps, with highlights of a patchy dive were Spotted Eagle Rays, Big Black Cod, Big Wobbygongs and Big Bull Rays. other sightings were turtles including a big Green Turtle, Octopus and a mix of Nudibranch.
Visibility- 6 to 10 mtrs
