What's the Point? - 29/09/2014

The Zookeeper, the Mermaid, the Money Monster and I had planned to go to Gortien Point, but at the last gasp we changed our minds and headed to Anchor Point.

The Money Monster, a new character in my blogging adventure, is a rebreather diver and as a native french speaker - every bit the Jacques Cousteau of Glasgow's south side.

The site was ideal as the Money Monster had brought his temporary ward, Bertie the Labrador.

We did two dives the first to the right of the site and a second to the left for some fluffy photography, Although, it was only me and the Mermaid as the Zookeeper had a drysuit leak and the Money Monster had a cell error while preparing for dive two.

The vis was a pretty consistent 3-4m, which meant there was enough life to keep us interested. Including:


  • sunstars
  • seven armed starfish
  • dogfish
  • nudibranchs

Still experimenting with macros, I'll leave the pictures to do the talking. :)
