Diver's Notes

On the GBR w/ Deep Sea Diver's Den!

Boarded ReefQuest transfer boat, after hilarious van ride with Dan the Englishman.
About 90 minute boat ride out to Norman Reef.

Definite cattle herder, but nice outfit.

Lots of Japanese divers.

Only 6 certified divers out of about 30 people on xfer boat, and lots of snorkelers.

Descended over a giant clam (approx 1m wider), went around coral peninsula to dive along wall. Saw white tipped reef shark near "ski slope" of sand (4-5ft).
Back into coral bay via ski slope.
Got very shallow (~12ft), but great vis and life and coral.

Saw pink clownfish and great barrier reef clownfish

Snorkeled after and saw very large puffer.

Overall marginally better than Maui.

Toby is main divemaster, very nice.
