TRIP REPORT
Poor Knights – 23rd October
A group of 12 divers headed up to Tutukaka for a fantastic days diving with Yukon Dive Charters to the Poor Knights. The weather was perfect and we managed one dive at the Northern Arch, and another at May’s Wall. The highlights were a hammerhead shark sighting and playing with a curious seal during the safety stop. The viz was great and the waters warm. It was so good we’re finalising dates to return in February 2011.
