A single shore dive by Gary and Chad on this excursion consisting of 1 x 130 minute dive in water depth up to 5.8 m, 1 m viz, 27C water temp.
After trying to get an offshore dive in without success we decided to give the river a try. It was low tide but we had a meter of vis which was enough to find nudibranchs. A very interesting find from under a rock where there was an ascidian with what looked like 3 small sacogossans (Bob Burn) in it. And a new record for the river, Hallaxa cryptica.
