5th October 2020 – Seal Visits South Solitary Island

Scuba Diving seems to be the pick for the schools holidays as we have booked boats for the next 5 days!!!
Dive one today was at Shark Gutters, visibility was down a bit with 5-8m and temp was a cool 17-18C.
Lots to see including Grey Nurse Sharks, Octopus, Turtles, Leafy Scorpion Fish, Spanish Dancers and Slipper Crayfish out in the open.
We had a large Fur Seal pop up and pay everyone a visit during the surface interval too, we do seem them very rarely maybe 3-4 times a year!!
Dive two was a drift from Cleaner Station down to South Boulder, visibility was very much the same, we had a huge Bullray on the wall, Grey Nurse Sharks, Fusiliers, Kingfish and big schools of Bulleyes.
