Dive HMAS Brisbane Dive Report 22nd February - 29th February 2010

It is great to see the rain which is something we need on a regular basis but divers quite often get disgruntled when it appears.

No sun does take a little from the visibility but not much. The run off out of the rivers and creeks can play havoc with visibility on our close in reefs.
The HMAS BRISBANE is just that little bit further north east of the river outflows and seems to miss the effects of the rainwater run off. Sunday was a prime example. A number of divers made their own assessment that it would be lousy and so canned their dive or decided not to book. Those brave souls who ventured out were rewarded with 15 metres of visibility and marine life that was “just going off’ to quote a couple who joined us. The swell had dropped quite quickly too so it ended up being a great day’s diving.

Tuesday looks like being a pearler of a day with virtually no wind predicted, the seas flattening right out and good viz. We’ll have to adopt a wait and see attitude for the weekend. The long range forecasts can sometimes be a little inaccurate.
