A single shore entry dive by Gary and Kelly of 130 minutes. Maximum depth 5.5 m, 23 C water temperature and up to 7 m viz.
An early morning dive was in order today. The section south (upriver) from the stairs has a sany silty substrate with rocks of different sizes. This area is very rich in nudibranchs! Finding Siphopteron sp. 4 and Julia exquisita again was a real treat. The black rhinophore Gymnodoris sp. 4 was another great find, I believe this was the third sighting.
