A single shore entry dive by Gary and Gail of 172 minutes. Maximum depth 6.8 m, 27 C water temperature and up to 2 m viz.
With big swells and wind forecasted we thought we woud jump in the river once more. Maria and Robin from the US came as a land lab to photograph what we found. The viz was not as bad as I thought it would be and the high tide was 2.1 m so current probably had a say. The species count was low but was still had fun. We had not seen Unidentia sp. in a while and only one animal was found, from under a rock.
