A single shore entry dive by Gary and Gail of 160 minutes. Maximum depth 6.0 m, 20 C water temperature and up to 10 m viz.
Spring is here and a warm day it was. Water temp still a cool 20C. Right after descending I turned over a small stick where Plocamopherus ceylonicus was found, nice way to start the dive! a few Tenellia sp. 24 were also recorded some about 5 mm. 5 Thuridilla carlsoni where a treat to see. A pretty pink Verconia romeri was a surprise find today as well. Another nice dive!
