Brilliant flat seas and at times, up to 30 metre visibility has had divers excited this past week. The viz dropped to 10-12 metres on the HMAS BRISBANE over the weekend but we still had 15-25 metres viz at Mudjimba and on the Gneering Shoals. Water temp is still a very reasonable 19C. Southern visitors and overseas visitors have revelled in the conditions. We've had a few keen local divers who have also been raving about the conditions plus they've not only heard whales singing but seen them while on the surface too. One sighting was very close to the boat. So those local divers who are waiting for the beautiful winter diving conditions, they are here!!! they have arrived!! These conditions will be missed by those who procrastanate. By 9a.m. the air temp has warmed and with a jacket to wear over your wetsuit while out on the boat, stick a beannie on your head and "Bob's your uncle". Get in and enjoy these calm seas and clear water conditions while they last. Later this week there will be a bit of wind but nothing to worry the diver too much. Dive conditions should settle again by the weekend.
