Details |
Club dive with St George Underwater Centre.
Entered the water along from the "boat ramp" and headed to the north-west reef. George suggested I slow down a bit and look around the area which I misunderstood as time to turn around. I turned around but didn't follow the compass and headed south instead of south-east. This took us way off course and we ended up on the southern side of the island. Next time, I will follow my compass. |
