This being the final dip of the trip, with only three of us in the water beside Jim, he just dropped the bait crates to the bottom, cut them open and laid out the morsels... At first only a few caribbean reef sharks zoomed in to gorge on the free pieces of fish, soon followed by a lone lemon shark. That is, until the tiger sharks came in en masse!

Jim actually counted nine of them, including Emma, who with her 4m was the smaller one of the party. Personally, I saw up to five tiger sharks within my eyes-wide-open field of vision. Whow!!!
