Dive report - Lighthouse Bay, Saturday 25 April 2009

Everyone had such a fabulous time on the dives yesterday that all of those diving again voted to dive Blizzard again today, too.

Blizzard Ridge was crazy.  Multiple olive sea snakes roaming around, blue spotted rays digging in the sand, wobbies under ledges and resting their heads at impossible angles on reef outcrops, big unicornfish zooming every which way. Turtles cruising past while lionfish hung out with their fins all spread out. Golden trevally and tuna shot through the walls of baitfish.

SURGE: none

We headed to Labyrinth for our second dive. Turtles were abundant and very mellow about divers swimming calmly beside them. Masses of fish in all sizes and colours hung out in big groups. Batfish were hanging around all the way from the surface to the sandy bottom and the cleaning action was awesome. Quite a few octopus just hanging out, changing colours & textures...being cool.
