20th July 2024 – Grey Nurse Shark Galore
We had a small crew of keen divers head out to South Solitary Island this morning!
Dive one had to be at Manta Arch due to the brisk Westerly wind, the dive around Manta Arch and the back gutter had a huge amount of Grey Nurse Sharks, schools of Tarwhine, Moray Eels and Nudibranchs.
Dive two was a drift from Manta Arch through the Gap to The Gantry. This dive was awesome and there was roughly 30 Grey Nurse Sharks in the Gap itself, plenty of Turtles on the shallow side near The Gantry, Wobbegongs and some very loud singing Humpback Whales.
Vis – 20-25m
Temp 18-19C
