A GOOD DAY SNORKELING THE REEF

LET SLEEPING DOGS SHARKS LIE.


It finally stopped blowing hard, the swell laid down and I thought it might be worthwhile seeing if the viz had finally improved.

The answer was yes and I came across this fine fellow. Probably a nurse shark and as it was motionless it might have been asleep. I am sure the rules about letting sleeping dogs lie also apply to sleeping sharks.

As there was no current I guess that shoots down the story that sharks have to keep moving to breathe.


These guys were also out today doing there thing with fang filled mouths and trying to look hard.

  1. Yes looks like a nurse shark, harmless, but best let sleeping sharks lie. Schooling Baracuda one of the speed merchants of the sea. Looks like a lovely day for diving.
