Dive #57
When: 23 July 2005
Location: Edithburgh Jetty, Yorke Peninsula, South Australia
Depth: 9.4m
Bottom time: 37 mins
Viz: 10m
Water temp: 12°C
Buddy: Scuba Buachall, Steve P
Dusk dive that turned into a night dive. North-south current. Sea horses - maybe 20 or 30 - under jetty. Port Jackson shark, starfish, pygmy leather jackets, baby cuttlefish, huge octopus under a ledge.
Something weird happened: there was a strong current surge, the viz dropped dramatically, I got a bit dizzy. Apparently the others felt strange also. Got snagged on a squid jag (was less than impressed) and had a bit of cramp in my calf.
Exciting dive though!
