A single shore entry dive by Gary and David of 138 minutes. Maximum depth 6.4 m, 25 C water temperature and maximum 2 m viz.
With the big seas settling down less silt-laden water is being drawn in through the mouth of the river almost doubling the recent visibility for us inside. The tidal flow was small so as soon as it stopped the silt hung around in the water column. The low species count continues. Nothing out of the ordinary sighted.
