Conditions: ?

Visibilty: 10m

Water Temp: ??c

Bottom Time: 40minutes

Max Depth: 5m

Details: Finally got the strobes back and decided to go for an explore down at Aireys Inlet with Phil. We checked out the reef out from the outflow of Painkalac Creek. I think the sand had really built up in this area and half the dive was sand before we found some low profile reef. Some unique weed in this area, but not a dive i’ll be jumping to do again too soon.

Details: Sounded up some really great structure and wow.. what a dive. It felt like i’d entered a secret world, unseen by humans before. Unfortunately I had some strobe issues, so did my best with ambient light. A moody dive.

Details: This is a fairly small site, but it packs a punch and is very photogenic. The large bommie has a large cave at its core, that’s home to a pair of Rock Cod. At the entrance sits a cluster of ascidians which I love to photograph. This sites definently on the dive again list.

Details: Sounding around out off the back of Charlemont Reef, I came across some structure that looked promising, however it wasn’t all that interesting. The terrain was larger boulders forming a bank of reef. No gnarls, or overhangs, but some nice vegetation.

Details: Off Ant Spit I sounded up a nice drop off from about 15-21m. The bommies/reef down here is a different structure to around Charlemont reef and around the bluff with a much more horizontal layering to it. Some of the walls and holes looked like the edges of Craters. A nice dive.
