i dived with a dozen grey nurse sharks & touched leopard sharks! the former was at Cherub's Cave on the Big Cat liveaboard wkend 3 wks ago, the latter at Straddie last wk. the water's warmed up considerably now, abt 25 deg. viz on the last few dives have been amazing - 20+ metres! other than grey nurse sharks & leopard sharks, i've also seen: wobbegongs, lots of turtles, an enormous bull ray, crayfish, octopus, stingrays, eagle rays... no manta yet. did a wreck penetration at Cementco, a large barge of sorts lying upside down at abt 35mtrs. swam frm bow to stern and back thru its many rms, & even reached the engine rm with its huge turbines. wreck diving's awesome. also visited part of a plane wreck. specifically, the wing of a WWII fighter plane, sitting in 18m on sand. tt's where i saw a little baby octopus & a huge bull ray. caves & swim throughs - incredible. saw stonefish, scorpionfish, lionfish & huge grouper. next major dive trip: 4-9 Jan to the Bunker Group, southern Great Barrier Reef. Woohoo! only downside: it's gonna be a 6hr drive to Bundaberg, then a 5+hr boat ride frm there. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! |
