A single shore entry dive by Gary and Gail of 142 minutes. Maximum depth 6.0 m, 24 C water temperature and 6 m viz.
Finally the water temp has reached 24C, time to switch over to wet suits. Ahhh summer water. After alot of rain the river has cleaned up very nicely. This dive covered about 25 m in total and alot of the search was concentrating on the sand, I was pleasently surprised. 3 species were discovered only while reviewing the photos after the dive.
