本日の神子元は、朝から北東の風が強く吹き、少し厳しいコンディションでのスタートとなりました。
1本目は安全を優先し、ダイビングエリアを制限してのダイビング。
その後は徐々に波も落ち着き、2本目からはエリア制限も解除！
いつもの神子元でダイビングすることができました。
ただ、午前中はなかなかハンマーに出会えず……。
「今日はどこにいるんだ！？」
という展開でしたが、午後になると状況が変化！
上げ潮が入り始めると、ついにハンマーヘッドシャークが登場！！
やっぱり潮が動くと神子元の海も一気に雰囲気が変わりますね！
海全体としては、青く抜けているというよりは少し青白い感じ。
場所によってはまだ冷たい水も残っていますが、水温や海況は少しずつ安定してきた印象です。
台風通過後、毎日のように変化している神子元の海。
今日の午後の上げ潮とハンマーの群れを見ていると、ここからさらに良くなってくれることに期待したいところ！
明日はどんな海になるでしょうか！？
青い潮、そしてハンマーの大群に期待です！！
Today at Mikomoto started with strong northeasterly winds and slightly challenging conditions.
For the first dive, we prioritized safety and limited the diving area.
Fortunately, the waves gradually calmed down, and from the second dive onward, the restrictions were lifted and we were able to dive around Mikomoto as usual.
However, during the morning dives, the hammerheads were nowhere to be found…
“Where are they today!?”
Then, in the afternoon, the situation finally changed!
As the incoming tide started to flow, hammerhead sharks appeared!
Once again, Mikomoto showed us just how quickly the underwater atmosphere can change when the current starts moving.
Overall, the water had a slightly pale blue appearance rather than being perfectly clear and deep blue. There were still some colder patches in certain areas, but both the water temperature and overall conditions seem to be gradually stabilizing.
Since the typhoon passed, the ocean conditions around Mikomoto have been changing day by day.
Seeing the incoming tide and the hammerhead school this afternoon gives us hope that things will continue to improve from here!
What will tomorrow bring?
Fingers crossed for blue water and an even bigger school of hammerheads!
