It Was The Best of Dives, It Was The Worst of Dives Part 2 - 10/04/2014

Now as you know, that last dive was, to use a three letter acronym, PDG! (pretty darn good). For the second dive we had galloped across the Rest & Be Thankful to Twin Piers, Loch Fyne. By the time we had parked, rekitted and entered the water it was 9.15 and dark. So with strobes and torches on we began to descend.

By the time we reached 6 metres I was questioning if there was much point continuing as the visibility was less than 50cm. Laura convinced me to persevere by the time we reached around 10-12m the visibility had increased from zero to poor (2m). Navigating to the reef I barely saw any life - even on the reef it was scarce. Then finally, after reaching the reef, I saw a beautiful little sea cucumber, then a conger eel, then a dab, then a scorpion fish, then another sea cucumber. Don't get me wrong, it was still a terrible dive in terms of visibility, but the sea cucumbers made up for it!

The return was an awkward trip back through the poor visibility. We came out the water at 10pm, just in time for Ed to get up the road in time for bed.
