A single shore entry dive with Gary, Sheryl and her brother of 210 minutes. Maximum depth 5.6 m, 20 C water temperature, up to 3 m viz.
End-of--week diving, again how good does that sound? The northerly wind is still pumping hence the less viz. Worth the whole dive was recording for the first time this winter Knoutsodonta maugeansis and Limacia ornata. Wow!
