4th February 2021 – Potato Cake Thursday!!!!

With sea conditions flattening out after a brief upset yesterday, Wildfin headed out to South Solitary Island for some fine diving! On arrival we noted the water was still very blue and warm with an uphill current.
First up our divers rolled in at Buchanan’s Wall for a drift to the Gantry. along the way our divers saw Turtles, Black Cod, Blue Tangs, Porcelain Crabs and Blue Spotted Rays.
After the surface interval our divers dropped in at the Gantry to continue the drift northwards to South Boulder. The Highlights included even more Turtles (including Scratch), Blue Groupers, a large Leopard Blenny and a Painted Crayfish. The swell gave a dark cover of bubbles over the divers at times near Shark Gutters, warning us of it’s bigger than normal size.
Congratulations to  Sophie, Rhiannon & Addison on completing their Advanced Open Water course.
And a giant thank you to Deb for the ever amazing potato cake for morning tea!!
