Donut Dive!!!! March 2009!!!!

Yes! What a great day for a dive. Viz was good, temp is up a bit (68 degrees) and all sort of life was out today. Thanks to all eight folks who came out (plus another six open water students) to fill up the Spanish Rocks parking lot with divers. It is really fun to see the whole group together. Our open water students benefit from seeing other divers on a dive as well.





Picture of a very happy Welk eating an egg sack.

Viz was great - about 20' on the sand and dropped to about 12-15' on the rocks due to algae. There was a lot of algae growth on everything down there. All of the hydroids and soft corals were covered and not visible. It was a little unusual to see some much quick growth.
Today's toll included 22 tanks of air, 26 donuts, 3/4 gallon of coffee and a bunch of happy divers.
Congrats to our new certified diver today! Max completed the course today in fine style and we are very proud of our newest 10 year old diver! Greg
