Diver's Notes

Second dive of the day, again at the pinnacles. nice dive with heaps of life.

Down the shot line at the back of the boat then a few metre swim over to the mooring through the blue water. Sat at around 20m watching the kingfish school smash the little sardines. Also jewfish around and a little white and black damselfish.

Big grey nurse shark snuck up behind me while we were sitting in the school of the kingfish.

Nice dive, good to see patricia in the water again.
