Terry, Gary & David on this single shore entry dive of 132 minutes. Maximum depth 6.1 m, 24 C water temperature and up to 5 m viz.
Yet another nice long relaxing dive in the river with plenty of sea slug species to photograph. A fair number of Plakobranchus sp. 1 were sighted and two species new to the river list were recorded -
Favorinus tsuruganus & Hypselodoris kanga.
