9th May 2022 – Magic Monday at South Solitary island

With only a small group of divers “2 Wild” steamed out to South Solitary this morning. The Northern end of the Island was decided, sheltering from the Southly wind. Shark Gutter mooring was the pick for dive one. All divers decended down the line to be greeted by our very friendly Leopard Shark, also seen on this dive were ‘BIG Wobbegong Sharks, Turtles, and Nudibranchs. Also seen was a big school of Barracuda and Batfish circling the mooring line.

After morning tea all divers dropped down the line making their way to South Boulder. Marine life seen on this dive were Black Cod, Lionfish, Painted Crays, Eagle Rays, and BIG schools of Bulleyes, and pomfreds. One group of divers made their way to the gap and were greeted by more turtles.

Congratulations to Bas and Joshua on completeing their PADI Open Water Dive course.
