Never saw this one before… the fishermen and whale sharks over here have developed a special relationship. The fishermen feed them small fish by hand.

Lupi master in command

July 5, 2010 Leave a comment

The crew of the yacht Meduse heard about our beautiful island with our resident whale sharks and decided to travel half the ocean to pay us a visit. The captain called in the help of our team to guide the yacht to a save anchor place. For thirty minutes our dive guide Lupi was master in command of the 60 meter yacht. Exactly on ‘Lupi’s’ spot he commanded the captain to drop anchor. The following two days we dived with the Medusa crew between schooling whale sharks. The crew already had the opportunity to dive in hotspots like Palau, Galapagos and Antartica but they said they never encounter anything like this in the world. Some crew members even deleted all their pictures to save room for the whale sharks. Lupi stayed that night on the yacht as guest of honour. When he returned to Ahe next day he was speechless and still a bit freezing due to the air condition.
