Sephiroth Dived on: Monad Shoal - 30m, 41min - With French Kiss Divers Posted on 19/04/15 at 05:53

Cinquième et dernière plongée de la formation advance open water Deep Dive Ca y est! Nous somme advance open water. Et quelle chance de pouvoir terminer la formation sur le site de Monad Shoal et y voir nos premiers requins : Les requins renards! Spectacle absolument incroyable! Ces requins sont d'une grâce et d'une beauté stupéfiante!!! Difficile dans ces conditions de tenir compte des éléments importants d'une plongée profonde, à savoir, surveiller sa profondeur et sa consommation d'air beaucoup plus souvent tout en maitrisant au maximum sa flottabilité avec la narcose qui commence à faire son petit effet. Espèces vue : -Tresher Shark -Banner fish (Gil dans Nemo) -snapper fish (très gros)

!st time Monad Shoal early morning looking for Thresher Sharks Beautiful sunrise 35 minute boat ride, parked on buoy, drop to 50 ft , 100 m swim to shoal/ wall. Looking to deep water saw 1st shark from distance only. Second shark up into our artea, a couple turns and disappear. Third shark up to top of shoal 2-3 turns, cleaning and then off to North. 3RD SHARK WAS THE LARGEST. Also saw juvenile Whitetip Shark swim by just before 3rd Thresher. Amazing experience, decent pics and videos.

The world famous Monad Shoal. Probably the best site in the world to see thresher sharks. They come up from their usual deep water home to be cleaned on a plateau by cleaner wrasse. The cleaners eat the dead skin and parasites as the sharks glide past. We saw about ten individuals up to 8m in length including one that swam about a metre over my head. They have beautiful big black eyes belying their killer nature. Fabulous creatures.

First time at Monad, to see the Thresher sharks! We saw them, awesomeeee! Also a nice big fish as soon as we entered the water, and many sea stars. Monad is a submerged island, we enter the water on its top and go down to 25-30 meters on the wall, to arrive to the cleaning points were the sharks go every morning to get cleaned by small fishes. The sharks will then go back deep into the sea.

Plongée sur le site du requin renard où nous avons eu la chance de le ou les croiser à plusieurs reprises. Les conditions climatiques étaient déplorables mais c'était tout de même une plongée inoubliable.
