3rd June 2021 – Whales singing at South Solitary plus a curious Batfish
After nearly 2 weeks out of action due to poor conditions, “2 Wild” made it’s way out to South Solitary with student and certified divers. On the boat trip out, divers were even lucky enough to see several breaching Humpback Whales.
For the first dive we chose to dive Shark Gutters, where we saw lots of Wobbegong Sharks, Moray Eels, Anenome Fish, Black Cod, Lionfish, Nudibranchs plus a curious Batfish who tagged along for practically the whole dive (pic by cassie!)
The choice for the second dive was Buchanans Wall. During this dive, we had plenty of background noise, as Humpback Whales were singing throughout the entirety of the dive. In addition, we had a large Green Sea Turtle, Bull Rays, Pufferfish, Lionfish, more Moray Eels.
Also congrats to Daniel who finished off his PADI Open Water Course today.
