Diver's Notes

Second dive on other side of Elphinstone, from north to south. Huge drop off too. Christian spotted octopus in ledge and just a pair of eyes surrounded by brown shading. Also saw free-swimming moray, about 2m winding on wall and went into hole. Some lovely clown/anemones, came off reef at end into blue where Yasser set off delayed SMB and we waited (patiently) for white tipped sharks to come, but they didn't .
Saw flying fish on way back and stopped nearer land on sea grass to trawl for Dugong, but no Dugong. Maybe next time?
