Diver's Notes

Our second dive today was very relaxing, short but relaxing. Water temp was 15 degrees Celsius so I was very glad I didn't wear my hood. Still lots of divers about on our way back in to shore.

Two ribs showed up packed with divers (about 10 or so in each boat) as we surfaced near the shore. About 20 other divers , looked to be trainees from Oceandivers, in the water too. So a very busy spot for diving today.

Still overcast when we surfaced but very very warm.
