Resort drift
|
|
This was to be my last dive for the drip. The
combination of bad weather caused by 4 cyclones within a few hundred kms
of the island and hand which was quite swollen by this stage meant no
more dives for me. The others did enjoy another day of diving.
After lunch of rice and meat on the boat we headed out for our second
dive for the day. The resort drift starts almost at the end of the Nui
Nui drift. Led by Karen, we dropped down over a wall to 33m where
there were heaps of moray eels. Karen told us that she has counted
over a dozen in a small part of this wall. Drifting along the wall
for as long as we could there were plate corals and fans galore.
Again forced up to shallower depths by deco limits we drifted around a
series of bommies, just full of corals of all sorts and fish life
galore. My 226th dive, I managed 64 minutes.
