A single night shore entry dive by Julie, Gary and Terry of 124 minutes. Maximum depth 6.1 m, 20 C water temperature and around 8 m viz.
Excellent diving conditions and clear water continue and we took advantage of it. The numbers of Flabellina rubrolineata and Cratena lineata were found to be much lower. Finding Dendrodoris atromaculata again was a real treat, as well as some large Sebadoris fragilis. Pleurobranchus peronii was in great numbers tonight, one without rhinophores!
