Diver's Notes

Dive 1/2
+Suunto Vyper

PADI Adventure Dive - Deep Dive
Decided to make this an adventure dive in order to be able to do a wreck dive at a decent depth. This was my first dive well below 18m

Demonstrations from instructor: Colour change of a red crisp packet, compression of said crisp packet. Mathematical calculations at surface and at depth - much slower (and wrong answer) at 30m

Also saw:
Giant Puffer Fish
Large Titan Trigger Fish
Bearded Scorpionfish
Spotted Lionfish
White-eyed Moray
Mantis Shrimp
Assorted Fusiliers
Trumpetfish
