Julie, Terry, Gary & David (the whole Team) on this single shore entry dive of 112 minutes. Maximum depth 4 m, 21 C water temperature and 6 m viz.
24 species is a good haul for this site although it is known to fluctuate wildly with species numbers. The surge played havoc with obtaining good images. Our latest species - Sclerodoris tuberculata - is an excellent find. An absence of any aeolids was noted.
