Great dive out to visit the Dragon's Den at Second Valley. Immaculate visibility, 10m and some nice conditions. With the bloom it seems like a lot of the "usual" life has gone away, but the seagrass and kelp appears to be a lot healthier here than...
First dive back at Aldinga Pinnacles since the Algal Bloom started. Definitely more life than I was expecting but fish are still a little worse for wear. The vis wasn't that great, but it's never totally clear here!
Long single dive at Pt Hughes, and the first dive back in a wetsuit after some cold waters! Lots of nudis out, at least 6 species recorded this dive, with the elusive Marionia albany, the snow coral nudi, making an appearance!
Night dive at porties, the first since the algal bloom. Definitely a weird vibe down there and not much life. There were a number of goblinfish and gurnard perches around so still signs of life, but still a little devastating.
