Details |
Club dive with St George Underwater Centre.
Entered west of 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. Didn't find any weedy seadragons but did find a boarfish. Came back more-or-less along the same path and exited at the entry point. |
