Birthday dive

It has become a tradition that Darryl and I go on a birthday dive. This year it was delayed a day because of our Birthday/Tuesday Adventure Day.

This year we decided to explore a new site to see if it has any potential as dive site for visitors. Sadly, no, at least not the part of the beach we dove. Getting in the water on "flat" day was an adventure for the two of us, both pretty experienced shore divers. Our original plan was to snorkel out and see was what was down there before we dropped under but the surface was too rough to snorkel. So we dropped early. And then spent a long time over a rock with little to see at nine feet. Then we swam a long way over a lot of sand to get to 30' and still nothing to see. That's pretty much the story of this particular site: shallow, rough and not much to see.

Not very promising as a dive site.

We still want to explore the other end of this particular beach. A preliminary dive there indicated it at least has some potential.

Stay tuned.
