Looks like it is going to be a windy weekend with North Westerlies forecast up to 45 knots. Thats good and bad, good that it is in a lot of places an off shore wind that causes an upwelling, bringing clear water to the surface. For this reason places like the East side of the Sounds and down the coast to Kaikoura have good vis at the moment. The down side is that Port Gore and places like Cape Jackson are going to be out of bounds for the weekend.

Luckily we have no Port Gore trips this weekend and have scheduled a Kai Dive to Wellington Bay, which I expect will be clear and is protected from the wild and windy conditions. There is still a couple of spaces on this trip if your keen.

Inner Sounds diving is also an option, I had 6 metres vis at the Fish Reserve on the mornings DSD dive. Water temp though is a cool 14.5, might stay in my dry suit for another few weeks I think.

CLAIRE ON HER DSD THIS MORNING

CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEA: DSD VOUCHER

The Discover Scuba Dive is an excellent way for people to enjoy a dive without committing a lot of time or money to an Openwater course. On completion the experience and fee can be credited towards their PADI Openwater course if they choose to continue on with Go Dive Marlborough.

Normal cost for the DSD is $185.00 or $150.00 to Dive Club Marlborough members and includes a boat dive and personal tuition with one of Go Dives Instructors. It is as easy as calling me on 0800 GODIVE and a DSD voucher will be sent pronto.

Have a goooooooood weekend and safe diving.
