A single shore entry dive by Gary and Gail of 128 minutes. Maximum depth 5.9 m, 20 C water temperature and 12+ m viz.
Another beautiful sunny winters day. Looking at the river from the shore makes you smile, the water is so clear! Hurry suit-up. On the bottom the vis was outstanding, a waste for me because I am head-down. Cratena lineata was out in force, hundreds of animals. For me finding Mexichromis sp. again was really special, such a jewel. The tire has a colony of Kabeiro christianae with it distinctive egg mass.
