A single shore dive by Gary, Gail and Adele on this excursion consisting of 1 x 155 minute dive in water depth up to 6.8 m, up to 3 m viz, 28 C water temp.
When you're free and the ocean is a little upset - go dive the river. From the shore the water looked pretty nice, and the heat of the morning made for a quick entry. Today was the first time the water temp was 28 C, very tropical. The second sighting of Eubranchus inabai was a great find in amoungst the hydroids while searching for Doto and Eubranchus animals.
