Diver's Notes

Club family day. Fair weather with some isolated showers. Visibility was average for the Electric Beach dive.

Entry into the water from the beach was okay. Spinner dolphins were congregating just southwest of the pipes.

Explored the reef area to the north of the pipes. Only mild currents in the reef area.

Nathan was snorkeling above the dive group.
