The bronze whaler shark are sleek thoroughbreds of the shark world, and they appear on a regular basis at the northern end of Tawhiti Rahi, near a site called Cream Gardens.
A pod of around 18 dolphins spent some time with our divers in Maroro Bay today as they were surfacing from their dive. The Poor Knights are on the migratory path for a number of species, and the bottle nosed dolphins that we see are on their way up and down the coast.
A young male dolphin found himself too shallow and stranded in Wellingtons Bay, but quick thinking by local orca expert Ingrid Visser soon had him back out to sea.

Tim GriezitisDived 2 days (16th & 17th January 2009)
Thanks for the emailed information and details for accommodation choices. I dived the Poor Knights with another instructor and I’ve over 2 days and have been very impressed with the company’s staff, quality of service, speed of gearing up in the morning, boats and the skipper in particular. I’ve been diving all round the world on a personal quest, to dive the worlds best sites and so far Dive Tutukaka has been exemplary in service handling, boats and from I can, general logistics. Apart from coming back in early March when the water clears and fish life intensifies I’l certainly be recommending your company to professional and friends.
The only ‘personal’ request would be to have a choice between a Chocolate biscuit and say an Almond biscuit (I’m not a chocolate fan you see and prefer fruit biscuits). Its remarkable that its the only item I could possibly think of to change !!
