| Shark Dive arranged via Diving Headquarters, 436 High Street, East Prahran VIC 3181. Face-to-face with grey nurse sharks, seven gill sharks, giant stingrays and hundreds of exotic fish in Melbourne Aquarium's 2.2 million litre Oceanarium. Briefing given by James. Diving instructor in the water was Andrew. Three first time divers and myself in the group. A negatively buoyant dive. Entry: Down the steps onto the entry/exit ledge in about waist deep water. Entered the water first, put on my fins and mask. Waited for one of the large sharks to go by and stepped in off the ledge. Went down to the bottom of the deepest section (7m) and waited,. The others eventually entered the water and traversed on the surface with Andrew across to the 4m main area. Joined them there and started to check out the fish. One of the other divers was having trouble so went to assist, then Andrew came and helped her. Eventually the group traversed down to the far end where we spent most of the dive. I eventually settled on my back and watched the fish go by. Touched a couple of the large stingrays. One of the other divers got into trouble and was taken to the surface and out of the oceanarium by Andrew. When out time was up, we headed back towards the entry/exit point. I didn't bother to go down into the deeper section again as not many fish were going down there. Waited until the others had all made it onto the entry/exit ledge and then joined them. The diver who had finished her dive early was still having problems. She ended up being taken off in an ambulance. |
