Details

The dive started badly, with me having real problems descending. I eventually added an extra two kilos of weight  and descended to a pretty featureless bottom. The  current at the surface didn't seem to continue at the bottom.. Launched DSMB and drifted slowly west. Not one of the best dive sites in the area.
