Experiencing such prolific underwater ecosystems is a rare treat. All the dive sites were truly world class but stand out dives during our trip were: Cape Kri - the sheer bio-mass of fish was impressive Blue Magic - for sharks enjoying the current The Passage - where we enjoyed caves and a nice drift dive in the current Pearl Farm - night dive where we only moved about 10 metres in an hour Manta Sandy & Eagle Rock - Giant Manta's Thanks to the deeply knowledgeable dive lead and boat manager Ben, the always smiling boat crew and dive guides as well as my fellow divers - Harry, Nik, Antoine, Frederique and Evelyn for making it such a memorable trip.
