Mornington and Flinders Piers.

Morning ton and Flinders Pier

A classic day of pier hopping , lunch and celebratory drink at the pub afterward.. What I love about Diving!  thanks JJ, Ad, Brit for a great day!

 Mornington Pier, Construction works are still impacting this site, but on a stormy day it was generally calm, and following the pier to the end,where you have depth you can safely go around the seaward side and explore the rocks, for rays, cuttlefish and sea horses.  pity my camera work wasn't better a lot of blurred photos.

Wall Dive Portsea

Wall Dive from Portsea - Boat

Nice wall dive with Lynne and Mary Anne. 

Mt Eliza

Mount Eliza,

Earimil Drive at end of this drive is a turning circle which leads down steps to the beach.

Beach dive 

With Simon Kay,

Nice dive, stairs are steep and long but good condition , maybe better site to dive at high tide on calm day. Reef is to the left at the small point and out toward the navigation buoy.
Beach entry is nice with depth quickly achieved, so no long walk across shallows.
Appears to be a nice quite beach area.
Parking at the top is limited so better done as a small group.
The Dive itself was at low tide on the urn , making somewhat surge a issue and limiting photographs and fossicking in the ledges much more difficult. Definitely a do again at high tide.

A nice night dive at a new spot for me, with Simon Kay, parked in the road carpark entered via beach, surface swim in front of boat ramp and then down and towards the point, then out towards the boat beacons.

Dive: 

Dive time 59 minutes

Depth 6.2 meters

Temp 14c

Blairgowrie

Blairgowrie Pier

Very Nice Saturday dive with Simon and Remi, testing out the new strobes and lights still so under a familiar pier was a good way to go. The conditions were good although the tide was running for the first part of the dive.

Note they have begun the rebuild of the sailing club so there is no direct access to the pier or toilet facilities now. Enter and exit via the beach.

Ricketts Night Dive

Ricketts Night Dive

A night dive after work, great conditions for night diving , flat seas, no wind, almost summer temperatures.

Entry tonight was near the point itself, from the beach which is a nice walk in , shallow as it was low tide but still ok and much safer than the rock entry points further north..  Great diving with Craig and Simon Again. Nice fun with an eel.

Fist time tested the new camera setup, nearly floats , but not much in it, but lots more practice to be done!!

dive time 60+ minutes
max depth 3.4 meters

Flinders Pier

Flinders Pier

A very nice dive today at flinders pier, with Matt Krumins, Andrea , Laura, richard and many more.  Good clear vis , clam waters and lots of weedy seadragons .
