Port Phillip Wall Dive
With Lynne Sullivan

A great day for a wall dive, vis was down but improved at the wall and was still decent.
The wall dives in port phillip bay are very colorful dense with soft corals, fish life and other critters.
Depth is typical wall, start at around 20metres and continues down to around 50 (not that we went there)
Highly recommended diving for anyone who thinks melbourne doesn't have great diving.
 Dive boat is Dive Vic from portsea.

Dive 280
Depth  27.9
Time 45 minutes
Temp 15c

Lynne's 400th Dive

Lynne's 400th Dive

A wonderful winters day dive at blairgowrie pier today, with little wind and sunny conditions the diving was superb with calm conditions & good visibility.  Blairgowrie has a great array of soft corals and growth and is also home to a wide variety of fish and sea creatures.

Big congrats to Lynne for completing 400 dives in 10 years.  Not bad effort for a non professional diver.

Ricketts Point Night Dive

Ricketts Point Night Dive

Nice easy dive at Ricketts Point, with Simon and Graeme, Entered slightly more north than usual , almost directly in front of the boat house, which kept entry in deeper water.
Usual gear up in carpark,follow the path down, head out to go right of the first channel marker then swing left toward the green channel marker. watch for boats as you will be shallow although rare for boats at night inside in the sanctuary.
