15 Aug 1991 | Yorky's Patches | South-west of Hastings Reef | Great Barrier Reef | Australia | 19 | 40 | 40 | Iain Hosking, Cathy Humphries | Dived off 'Sea Trek', a brand new boat (this is its 22nd day on the Reef). Weather - sunny, windy (force 3-4). Sea - blue with white horses. Fairly secluded spot 1.5 hours from Cairns. Visibility - pretty poor - 30-40 feet. But lovely coral - staghorn, brain etc. Very colourful. Not so many fish as at Holmes Reef, but all very active - nibbling algae and so on. Saw a new type of clownfish (single thin white stripe) and black and white puffer fish. Relaxed dive. | New wet suit. 20lbs weight. |
