Gary and group on this excursion consisting of 1 x 54 minute and 1 x 52 minute dives in water depths 16 m. 20 m viz, 22 C water temp and a little surge.
The day and conditions were forcasted as great for diving and it didn't disappoint. I conducted 'Nudibranch Day' at Sunreef Scuba Diving today. All though there wasn't a lot of species some interesting ones were recorded. All my searching was along the wall for both dives.
