Gary and Gail on this excursion consisting of 1 x 125 minute dive in water depths up to 6.0 m, up to 4 m viz, 25 C water temp.
The weather for boat diving was not cooperating so off we went to the river. The water temp was 25C the whole time and that means summer is coming. Again the sand proved very productive with many Colpodaspis sp. 1 and Costasiella sp. 2 as well as a new species of Haminoea.
