A single shore entry dive by Gary and Chris of 154 minutes. Maximum depth 6.7 m, 26 C water temperature and 3-5 m viz.
After all the weather we have had and the chocolate river it was a treat to get in to find very nice conditions. The current was a bit fast but that didn't effect us. This dive presented many nudibranchs, notably Goniodoridella sp. 1 which were everywhere. A juvenile Hypselodoris zephyra was a great find.
