Fun Group Dive @ Rapid Bay Jetty, South Australia

http://www.divingadelaide.com.au http://www.onlinedivegear.com.au We drove all the way out to Rapid Bay to dive with a group of our ex Open Water students and their friends (7 in total) on the old Rapid Bay Jetty! The plan was to do a double dive and explore as much of the jetty as we could and to get to at least the T-section to see the massive schools of fish that are always swimming in between the many pylons of the T! As soon as we arrived, we recognised the "milky glow" that Rapid Bay can have after heavy rainfall and we feared the worse, but a quick walk on the jetty revealed that the visibility at the entry point was still quite good (we could easily see the bottom), so we decided to kit up and get ready for the first dive! The visibility was great on the first dive (about 10m) and there wasn't any current running (which was lucky, as a group of divers exiting the water said that they had to work hard as there was quite a strong current while they were diving)! The visibility on the second dive was a bit less (the tide was now going out, so the milkyness was being washed out, so we had a "murky 5-10m visibility". We did get to the T-section on the second dive and even had a quick look around the old pylons behind the T and the massive a-frame that has been on the inside of the T for ages. The water temperature was a steady 18 degrees Celsius.
