A single shore entry dive by Gary and Gail of 152 minutes. Maximum depth 6.5 m, 20 C water temperature and up to 12 m viz.
As long as there is no rain or swell the river will have clear water, today was great. A couple of Polycera sp. were found from under a rock, similar but different. A nice sized Dendrodoris denisoni was also recorded with its blue spots intact. Also from under a rock was Discodoris lilacina.
