Details |
Entered at the "boat ramp" and headed along the sand line to the west. Veered off down the "ramp" to the north-west and out to what I like to call the "north-west reef" in search of weedy seadragons. Didn't find any in the usual spot but kept on pushing north-west following the reef into deeper water. I finally found one at 18 metres. Came back more-or-less along the same path and exited at the "bay" on the north-west tip of the island. |
