Diver's Notes

Collected cylinders at Buddy Dive and headed to Salt Pier. Verified entry and exit points. Katrina and I entered very slowly as there was small waves and a slight surge. Once we were in we swam as a group to the first pylon on the RHS, descended and headed to the next pylon then made our way along the pylons and returned along the same route. This time there were loads of divers at this site. At the last pylon Wilson took a heading and we headed to shore and encountered many turtles feed on the seagrass.
