Whats been happening at Let’s Go Adventures – 5th September 2017

Thanks to Simon Gagnon for this beautiful picture of a resting Wobbegong at Fly Point!

This Week at Let’s Go

We have been treated to some absolute stunning conditions out at Broughton Island and our shore sites. Saturday’s double boat dive at North Rock treated us to beautifully warm 19 degree water, 15-20m vis and the Grey Nurse Sharks coming back in numbers!

Our shore diving has been nothing short of amazing! Saturday’s night dive at Fly Point treated us to beautiful conditions with plenty of marine life out and about, and Mondays morning shore dive at Little Beach gave us 10m vis and 18 degree water with so many critters out and about for us to enjoy.

Big thanks to Dean Lawson and Simon Gagnon for these pictures of some diving from the past week!

TIP OF THE WEEK

It’s easy to be mesmerized by what exists below you. Look up and out into the big blue every once in a while. Many times, it’s where the larger sea creatures or schools of fish will be hanging out.

KUATA & MANTA RAY ISLANDS, FIJI 14-22 JULY 2018

Total cost per diver $3250 and non-diver $2335

Join the Let’s Go team as we journey to Fiji to visit two island resorts in the beautiful Yasawa Island chain, where we will be treated to beautiful tropical reefs, shark dives and (hopefully!) Manta Ray experiences!

The clear, tropical waters surrounding Barefoot Kuata Island are a declared marine park, this means incredible coral growth and teeming marine life. Expect to find everything from the tiniest of critters to pelagic animals. The underwater landscapes vary from site to site with plunging walls, drop-offs and beautiful coral gardens.
