Our first dive that day was “See & Sea” which Neil and I had dived two days before and knew what to expect.  Mike joined us for his first dive this trip and it really was a baptism of fire!  There was a strong current in our faces as we crawled over the lower pinnacle down to thirty metres.  There were more white tipped reef sharks than last time!  Mike and I hung on while Neil attempted to get close enough to film them.  You can swim quite fast in those bio-fins, but not as fast as a shark!  We then made our ascent in the lee of the big pinnacle, out of the current.
