5th November 2020 – Hammerhead Heaven!

Today we headed out to South Solitary for a double dive.
The First Dive was off Buchannan’s Wall, with some our divers heading deeper, and some keeping shallower. The water was a beautiful 25m+ visibility when dropping in. We saw plenty of Turtles, some Clownfish among other fish. We saw a slipper lobster, and a small little cuttlefish. Two of our divers (one being usual office-lady Tara!) were lucky enough to see a huge school of swimming Hammerhead Sharks. Well and above 100 Sharks! They were swimming by for around 3 minutes, just out from the wall
For the second Dive, one group started at Manta Arch and travelled through to the Gantry, with the other group staying at the Gantry. At The Arch there were at least a dozen Grey Nurse Sharks drifting about, along with more Turtles! There were also some Wobbeygongs, and a few Nudibranches. We even saw a little Squid!
