Dive report - Lighthouse Bay, Monday 1 June 2009

Blizzard Ridge was super active with more baitfish schools and more predator action again today.  Not quite as much as back in April, but strikingly more than even a couple of days ago.  Olive sea snakes were also really active, we didn't see any sleeping - only swimming to the surface and back or searching crevices with their tongues poking in and out.  Superb fish life thick all over the site again today.
WATER TEMP: 26C
VISIBILITY: 8m
CURRENT: none
SURGE: mild
DEPTH: 14m

Labyrinth was crazy with batfish and turtles today. There were a couple of mutantly huge batfish getting cleaned at the back of the site; one of them had three cleaner wrasse busily scrubbing away at one time! Lots of colourful nudibranchs were out and about - many of them not even pretending to blend in or hide.
