Advanced divers only; overcast but 3-4 m swells and very choppy. Got very sick whilst kitting up, was very nervous and the only female. The water was warm and we saw plankton as soon as we got in, did negative descent, battled with my left ear to equalise, and couldn't get the buoyancy correct. Drift dive: constantly scanning for sharks, lots of triggerfish, saw one Zambezi in the distance.
Guzzled air, drift time and continue to get sick on the boat, not too pleased with my dive.
