December diving

OK so it's now December, can't believe how fast this year has gone!!
Last month brought on the mass influx of Whale sharks, Devil rays and the good, clean, warm water of the summer season that we all love. We now have to put ice in our pool to make it cooler!! for the refreshing swim after our dives.
Come and see us whether for diving, training or just to go out snorkeling with the Whale Sharks and dolphins.
This is going to be a killer summer...................Stay tuned

Finn the Hammer head

Finn has had a fantastic week in Mozambique with Tofo’s Diversity Scuba (www.diversityscuba.com) !

Finn began his Tofo dive experience by taking two junior open water divers on their very first dive to show off his wonderful world. They hit 10metres at Clown Fish Reef, and Finn found that there that his Portuguese is actually very good as the reef residents were very excited to meet such a famous shark. 

Next Finn went for a deep dive to Oasis where he met a very friendly honeycomb moray, turns out Finn is a bit of a charmer! Then he went for a snooze in a cozy little cave with Walter the White Tip. So this is what it’s like to live in the warm Indian Ocean he thought.

After a few days of getting to know the residents of Tofo above and below the water, Finn was explained a little about the plight of Sharks in Mozambique. Diversity showed him a documentary that was filmed by Dave, Chris and Aaron. It’s called “Shiver Finning” (link to this site, http://vimeo.com/17295966 ). Mozambique and it’s shark population is suffering from this form of so called fishing and has only been put into the lime light from Dave and co’s hard work. Carlos Macuaca (Bitonga Divers) is also an avid ambassador to the local people in the aid form of educating them about the importance of sustainability of our waters. Carlos was kind enough to take Finn to one of his talks in the village, keep an eye out for this post.

So now it was time to get back into the water. Finn had heard loads about all the whale sharks in Tofo so decided it was time to do his Whale shark specialty and joined a Bio Safari to help collect data. Finn explains, “It was great, now I know how to identify individual sharks, we have to swim alongside the shark whilst we photograph the left and right sides above the pectoral fin, this captures an image of the whale sharks unique spots called the bodyprint. It was easy for me but the photographer couldn’t always keep up!” Being his first whale shark encounter Finn was a bit overexcited as he was surrounded by 13 sharks, and was busy posing for photos too!

So now it’s time to move on, Finn has a lift to Johannesburg then on to Cape Town to spread the word down in South Africa. “Thanks Diversity Scuba, all the crew and Bitonga Divers for helping me spread the word”

Winter or Summer!

`Wow, is this winter or summer. We have the Humback Whales as per usual for the winter time but also the kind of number of Whale Sharks that we would expect to see during the summer time. This sure has been a bumper winter for the sightings!!

We had to say good by to Finn the hammer head last week, it was time for him to move on south for his travels around the world raising awarness for the plight of sharks. Check out his blog on the next issue.
