Diver's Notes

The dive started with a steep descent straight down. We spotted a white tip and Roy went for it like an arrow!
Cruising west we enjoyed the view of some beautiful coral.
At some point I managed to sandwich a white tip between myself and Luca. It went straight for me, spotted me and turned around towards Luca, found Luca there and turned back towards me. I decided to stop and just let it go. Don't want a shark to feel stuck between two potential threats...
At some point Roy was perfectly posed hovering above and next to an outcrop of coral, so I signalled him to pose for me, which he did. Afterwards he told me he will not sign a model release, heheh.

There were loads of sturgeons who were not shy at all. I was constantly swimming in the midst of them.

The end of the dive was a little bumpy with some waves and swell.
