Did a dive this morning at Flat Rock, just south of the rocks with my buddy Andy, and we dropped down to poor visibility (about 10-20 feet) and he shot a Sculpin almost immediately. Andy placed the Sculpin on his stringer and we continued our dive around flat rock; about 30 minutes into the dive I noticed Andy jerk upright and point out behind me. I looked but didn't see anything. We got closer together and continued our dive heading north of the rocks into Bluff Cove. About 2-3 minutes later we both jerked upright as at least two grey sharks about 6 feet long circled us. The water was murky and it was difficult for us to determine what kind of sharks they were. They disappeared and returned about 2 minutes later; again circling us. They were curious but not afraid of us; even after blowing lots of bubbles. We looked at each other and decided to immediately end our dive and head to the service; even thought we each still had 2000 psi.
Any idea what kind of sharks we saw? We know what we didn’t see…they were not Blues or Leopards.
About two weeks ago, in the same spot two separate sights…one was confirmed to be a juvenile white shark. Check out the website at:
