A single night shore dive by Chris, Gail and Gary of 144 minutes. Maximum depth 5.0 m, 27 C water temperature and up to 1 m viz.
After an ABC interview we geared up and got in the cool 27C degree water. The water was still a little dirty but there was plenty of clarity to find our fav animals. The number of species was quite low and the anticipated species weren't there.
