A single shore entry dive by Terry, Gary and David of 91 minutes. Maximum depth 7 m, 20 C water temperature and up to 5 m viz.
A gusting westerly wind blowing straight down the river toyed with us as we geared up for a late afternoon/evening dive. Conditions below, thankfully were excellent but the slugs were not around in great numbers or variety. More than half of the species types were aeolids.
