Planula Bed and Breakfast Retreat, Byron Bay

The Leopard Sharks have left Byron Bay, but they have been ‘replaced’ by the Grey Nurse Sharks. A big girl was seen on most days with loads of remoras catching a ride.

Black-spot Goatfish everywhere as usual, a wrasse feeding frenzy was sighted, more Clown Triggerfish, heaps of wobbegongs lying everywhere, some large Lionfish as well, turtles, Tailor and anemone fish eggs about to hatch with the eyes of the hatchlings clearly visible.

Sunny most days, only a bit of rain on Monday. Some cool winds from the South. Cool nights

Sea

The bay was flat, only some surge and swell on Sunday.

Water temperature

20 – 21°C

Visibility

10 – 15 meters.
