HAMMERHEADS!!! All that staring out into the blue finally paid off!
I was down at around 30 metres on the northern plateau, a bit away from the group and the reef. I thought I saw a grey reef shark beyond the visibility but couldn’t quite make it out. As I swam back towards the reef, Fiona the DM pointed down and there were 3 hammerheads swimming beneath us! I could barely contain my excitement, especially when one (a juvenile) swam away from the other 2 and circled back towards me before turning away.
AMAZING! I couldn’t help but do a little dance at John I was that excited!
Also saw a barracuda, black snapper and a cute little network pipefish.
Such an awesome dive – my first hammerheads!!!
