Sea conditions have just been glorious and those brave enough to venture out for a dive of late have been rewarded big time for their efforts. The water has been gradually clearing up with visibility of 15 metres at The Caves on Monday and 20 metres on the HMAS BRISBANE. Apart from a few really keen local divers, our locals have been letting the side down. The visitors have been out numbering local divers by a huge margin in these past weeks. Guys and girls, you are missing out I have to inform you. By 9a.m. the weather has warmed and you only need a spray jacket or similar, to put over your wetsuit while you are not diving, plus a cap or a beanie and all is toasty warm. Don’t miss these calm seas and the constantly good visibility, get out there and have a dive.

The weather settled over the weekend to end up with flat calm seas making it very pleasant on the surface. After the high winds and rough seas, this was welcomed by the divers that's for sure. Visibility wasn't as bad as many predicted. With very muddy water on the surface, once under this the viz opened up to about 6 metres on the Gneering Shoals. Viz on the HMAS BRISBANE was down to about 4 metres but is already on the improve. With the sound of whales once again and dolphins surfacing around thee wreck, it made for a great dive. Water temp is still sitting on 19C and conditions for the weekend look like improving even more. So don't miss the calmer sea conditions while we have the south westerlies with us.
