Gary and Chris on this single shore entry dive of 95 minutes. Maximum depth 6.5 m, 24 C water temperature and 1 to 3 m viz.
The mission was to find Godiva which involved scouring the sand. We found 8 animals and then the pressure was off. The longer we dived the worse the viz got, and the darker it got!
