TRIP REPORT: Great Barrier Reef, June 3rd – June 7th

If there is one word to describe this trip, it would be “sharks.”  It sounds like everyone had a very exciting week!  During the 15 dives over three days passengers saw a leopard shark, a wobbegong shark, two hammerheads swimming together and two big silver tip sharks who got very close to divers. 

 

Nimrod Explorer visited the dive sites Fantasia Pixie’s Pinnacle and Lighthouse Bommie in the Ribbon Reefs.  They then headed out to Osprey Reef for diving at Raging Horn, Castles, Admiralty, West Wall, Shark Attraction, North Wall and Silver City. 

 

Visibility at all sites was about 20m and the average water temperature is now 25C.
