Andi and I did another test dive off of Powell Islets today.
The visibility is improved from just over a week ago on a less than bright day but still lots of clumpy particles and piles of krill in the water where we were. Vis at 50 ft about 50 ft. Vis at 100 about 25-30 feet.
Hope this improves a bit more over the next couple weeks.
We managed to get a few prawns while we were there.
