Details

Entered at the pool where it was very rough. The wind was howling through and there were waves of around half a metre. We descended and there was almost no movement at all. I found a little sea hare right in front of the pool.

We descended the wall and gradually moved along the wall. We stopped at the pineapplefish and then headed out onto the sand and around the bommies.

We came back to the wall and continued for a while, turning and returning at around 8 metres.

We exited at the pool.
