31st May 2020 – Shark Sunday at Solitary!
Today, on the 31st May 2020, we ran both boats (with reduced numbers for COVID19) for a double dive trip to South Solitary!
For our first dive we descended into Manta Arch and the top end. At Manta Arch we saw between 30 and 40 Grey Nurse Sharks cruising around, with an additional 10 around the top end. Here we also saw plenty of Moray Eels, Batfish, White Leaffish, a couple of turtles, and plenty of wobbegongs including some that were pregnant!
For second dive we dived Cleaner Station to South Boulder, and to The Gantry. A couple of Eagle Rays at South Boulder, plenty of Nudibranches in the gutters, a Blue Angelfish, lots of Old Wives, and a shovelnose shark!
