Dive Report 2 July

Twenty feet of vis (as long as one is not around a group of students, then it's good practice for muckdiving) made navigation easy. Good vis also brings out the cameras; it appeared that most divers were carrying one. The water temperature was eighty-two. Carrie and I were in 3mm wetsuits for our one hour, twenty-five minute dive with a student and friends. Octopuses are still plentiful. The yellow garden eels community seems to be growing as we are seeing them in new places. A sharptail eel and a goldspotted eel had a territorial dispute under the fishing pier. There is a gorgeous intermediate queen angelfish on the upside down wreck. It has been there for quite some time. Parking wasn't too bad for a weekend dive; the morning high tide and rain showers were helpful. Conditions are great! Get in the water, Ham
