Diver's Notes

Nice dive, calm sea. Vis not the best but it made the dive interesting.

Spotted a large lobster hiding under a big bolder. Raging i didn't have my camera with me. Bring it all the time in future!

My mask didn't flood much this dive only once really. Since the last dive I had tightened it slightly so it seemed to have done the trick.
