i'm going to visit gold coast city and aukland for a month, sept 5-oct 5 2010. i'm from canada. i've heard there a lots of jelly fish down there sometimes so i was thinking of getting a lighter weight wetsuit, 3mm maybe, and skin fins.
i was wondering;
-is this necessary?
-is 3mm appropriate?
-should i get a fin that can fit a boot?
-what are the water temps that time of year?
-is there a club in either city i could hook up with to find the good shore dives?
also, i've always wanted to dive with sharks. is it safe to do this down there? could they pop up anywhere? what kind are there in aukland and gold coast and what kind should i not even think about getting in with? i heard there are tigers, didn't find that in my research but i could be wrong.
anything else anybody would like to share about either place i'd love to hear it.
can't wait to get there!
