A single shore entry dive by Gary and Jens of 113 minutes. Maximum depth 5.7 m, 24 C water temperature and up to 1 m viz.
Sure enough the day looked beautiful lots of sun. Upon getting to the bottom the tidal movement was practically nill and particles just sat there. Putting that aside there were quuite a few nudibranchs. The find of the day was Hallaxa iju at 7 mm. Goniodoridella sp. 1 is as common as ever.
