Jumped in to the water off the back of the boat okay with Paul and went down Paul struggled to get down at first we swam though the first gully and round a large rock where I realised I hadn't plugged my drysuit hose in we then got a little disorientated and headed across a load of rock and out into the open where there was a slight current I grabbed on to the rocks but Paul tried to fight the current. I saw a large wolfiish hiding in a hole and Paul said he spotted a octopus, we then went with the current for a bit and swam along a rock face looking for lobbies but Paul did his harlem shake and that was the end of the dive! We stopped and both set off our smb's where they both went side ways "oh dear that's where we're going! Lol and off we went did our safety stop and surfaced great first dive in the sea this year 2013
