I dived Eden-Merimbula area sometime ago.... this was a nice dive site- especially the 2 large tug boat wrecks. The propeller was HUGE! too bad the area is now infested with more and more sharks...

last i knew the ocean was a sharks rightful home

the diver was a abolone diver collecting and one very very lucky man!

fyi - the waters down here have been unusally cold these past 2 weeks or so (freakin bloody cold actually)... ive been told the gws prefers the colder waters so that might be drawing them in
