After the boat dropped us off we had a bit of a surface swim to the start point of the dive. There was a very strong current to swim against but we made it ok. My reg freeflowed on the surface and i lost a bit of air but i finally got it under control and sorted the problem.
Excellent dive once we got down to 11m and drifted along the side of a long rock face. After about ten minutes we came to the end of the rock face and we cut to our right and swam into a sheltered bay. The current dropped off dramatically and we explored the bay for the remainder of the dive.
Simon (my guide) fed the fish which was cool and i got some excellent photos and video. Nice dive.
