Dive HMAS Brisbane Report 10th June - 17th June 2010

A little chill in the air is easy to cope with when you are diving in visibility from 15 – 30 metres.

Water temperature is on 21C and with south westerlies being the predominant wind, there’s no swell. Winter diving is here. Just add a “Lavacore” hooded vest under your wetsuit. This is all that’s needed to make your winter diving comfortable during these next couple of months of cooler weather.

The HMAS BRISBANE is alive and well with heaps of marine life all over the wreck. The King Fish that manage to outwit or dodge the ever present illegal fisherman are great to watch as they stalk their prey. We’ve nick named them the “Brat Pack” as they taunt the bait fish from one end of the wreck to the other.

The Eagle rays and bull rays are so used to divers now, they are not fazed at all and actually swim up to divers for a closer look. For some weeks now it has been great to see a couple of Angler fish make the rear deck their home. Week by week more diverse life appears making the HMAS BRISBANE dive one not to be missed.
