A single shore entry dive by Gary and Gail of 183 minutes. Maximum depth 6.6 m, 27 C water temperature and 10+ m viz, very clean water.
After waiting for the the holiday crowds to go home we went for a dive and was it good. The water was very clearand the current was minimal. A large stonefish was found about the size of a football and as clean as you'll ever see. We tried to find the Mexichromis but were unseccessful. Some interesting species were found after 3 hours of diving in perfect conditions.
