Blairgowrie night dive

Blairgowrie mid week night dive

Nice mid week night dive at Blairgowrie pier with Simon Kay. 
 Vis was ok but not great, and strong current at end of dive as tide turned to ebb, but still a very enjoyable way to spend a Wednesday night!

Diamond Bay Dive

Diamond Bay Dive

First time diving this back beach location.
Great dive but only do on a very calm day (northerly winds for a few days).
Stairs look steep but take it easy and no issues.
Enter from sandy part of Beach, follow either side out and in.

Lots to see on this dive, including 10 Port Jackson sharks (totally harmless)

10 Port Jacksons!

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.

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.
