Three Kings, New Zealand

By Stephen Wong (Adapted from "passport to diving the world")

Well Known For :

A great diving experience not to be missed.

It was 9 p.m., and after an hour of diving three friends returned with blue lips, streaming breath spouting from their mouths, but in total silence. Shinya suddenly whispered, "That is one of the scariest dives I've ever had. Those seven-gills were all over us. "Immediately I knew I'd missed a great dive. So I set out early next morning to find the shark. I saw a couple but they were shy. So I waited for nightfall. With a safety diver in tow, I was amazed as the sharks came closer. It was eerie to see them flickering between kelp beds. When these giant fish got too close I gave up and got back on the boat. I thought I might have a decent shot, but the film inside the camera didn't catch. No image. Never mind, though I don't think I'll be doing that night dive again.

(Ok enough with the stories, I'm itchin' for a dive)
