E08 - Diving with the Grey Nurse Sharks, Wolf Rock, Rainbow Beach

We cruise down the Great Sandy Straits checking out the Ceratoadus and Palmer shipwrecks. While waiting inside Inskip Point for good weather we have our underwater blue lights on at night and a couple dolphins come right up to the back to feed on the fish playing in our light. When the wind, swell, tide and the time are all satisfactory we cross the infamous Wide Bay Bar. We head to nearby Double Island Point to wait the night before diving Wolf Rock in the morning. Wolf rock is comprised of four volcanic pinnacles that are covered by hard and soft corals and is home to the critically endangered grey nurse shark. The Grey Nurse Sharks congregate during October and November at this site, and although diving a few months later are hopeful that we may possibly see at least one shark.
