Trip Summary: Warm weather, calm sea, and some sharks around made our day perfect! Our beloved visitors tried to trick us and let us wait for a couple of minutes before coming to the cage to give our divers some awesome impressions. Sticking around throughout the entire trip and giving every single diver the chance to see them in their natural beauty made our divers and crew smile today! Curious sharks came in and we got to see almost the entire size range! From smaller individuals leaving us in awe to bigger females making our jaws drop! 2 Short-tail stingrays made an appearance and passed the cage and observed our divers from under the cage. A Cape fur seal also made a couple of turns before moving on to check out the other boats.
