Diving in Darwin Harbour
G'day Tony,
yep, the site may say that visibility is 14m but that may be on one or two days of the year, only in the Dry Season, and only if you are extremely lucky.
If you check their entire site there are very few pictures at all - even in their "Gallery" (and most of these are not 'clear'). The pics in the WW2 Wrecks section are the best I have yet seen and have probably been accumulated over the past couple of decades, not years.
If you read their account of finding Huxley Reef in News and Events (and this is outside of the harbour) they mention 'cafe latte diving' and 'night diving in the middle of the day'. That is much closer to what it is usually like.
But that is all we have so we deal with it as best we can.
On a different note, are you attending Corowa?. I have managed to get a return ticket so will be there - yippee! i am looking forward to it immensly.
Jared
