Dive HMAS Brisbane Dive Report 18th May - 25th May 2010

Grab your dive gear; grab your hoodie and book onto a dive real quick.

For all of those who have been waiting for the conditions to calm down and clear up before you book for a dive; well you've already missed some great conditions so don't miss what's happening this week.

Those gentle South Westerlies are here and we have flat seas and very clear water. When you are in the engine room of the HMAS BRISBANE and look outside and you can see the sand on the bottom some 20 - 30 metres away, you have clear water. Water temp is hovering from 21C to 23C depending on ocean currents etc. and the marine life is just 'going off'.

Divers reported pods of dolphins on the surface and although we haven't seen any whales yet, there have been reports from a little further south that they are on their way. We should be seeing and hearing them very soon.

International guests have made up the larger percentage of divers in recent weeks. Once again, so many have stated that they came to the Sunshine Coast just because they wanted to dive the HMAS BRISBANE.

So don't miss these conditions, there's no guarantee that they are going to continue forever. You would be wise to bring a jacket and beanie to put on after your dives and you can experience some of these fantastic conditions you hear talked about so often.

If you think you might need some extra warmth under your wettie for this winter, then come and talk to Kelly as to what she thinks of the Lavacore thermal undergarment she bought recently. They are toastie!!!! Kelly will admit that she is a bit of a frog and has never been so warm since grabbing one of these new Lavacore tops.

We wish Trina a speedy recovery from her surgery.
