Welcome aboard at 6:30 pm. Formal inductions and safety talk will begin, followed by being shown to your cabins to unload your belongings. Anchors away and we head off to Hopkins Island or the Neptune Islands. </span><b>Please note that dinner is included onboard on this first night. </b></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Day 2 </strong> </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s worth getting up at day-break for the rest of the journey down to the Neptune Islands. The scenery is spectacular – we pass through the stunning Thorny Passage and stop by the Hopkins Islands for an hour so you can snorkel with Australian Sea Lions. Anchor at the Neptune Islands (our destination), where you’ll no doubt spot a few dorsal fins. Divers are briefed, and the cages hit the water, ready for action!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Relax, unwind, talk about the day while feasting on the buffet, check out the amazing night-sky, retire to your cabin (no engine starting at 4:00 am).</span></p> <p><strong>Day 3</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Diving resumes in the Surface Cage and the Ocean Floor Cage. We also like to hop in the tender boat, check out the New Zealand Fur Seals and go walking around the Neptune Islands. By now, you'll be getting to your sharks and the Rodney Fox Shark Presentation in the evening will share even more information about these wonderful animals.</span></p> <p><strong>Day 4 </strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">More time to spend Surface and Ocean Floor diving – there is no time limit in the cages, as long as everyone has their fair share. You can also do some Shark and Wildlife watching from the observation deck, relax with a book – anything that floats your boat. Leave the Neptune Islands by 3:00 pm and enjoy some lovely local South Australian ‘wine on the bow’ usually with common dolphins joining us for company.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We arrive back in Port Lincoln by 8.00PM for guests to disembark. Dinner is provided onboard.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">* Itinerary is indicative only (subject to weather and any other circumstances that may affect the scheduling of events).</span></p> <p> </p> <p><b>What to bring: </b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> All basic dive gear, i.e. mask, snorkel, fins, boots, regulator set and dive computer along with a wetsuit. </span></p> <meta charset="utf-8"> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We recommend a minimum 5mm but thicker if you feel the cold.
