Victoria Vis conditions?

[ChevaYEA]

Yesterday morning's vis at Christmas Point and Misery Bay in the inlet was an easy 60 feet. It was fantastic! Gave us a great opportunity to take some pictures of the sponges.

Ten Mile was only about 15'.

Good to know, a few of us will be diving at Henderson PT tonight.

You lucky the viz clear since last week, otherwise you would have a lots of pictures of peas soup.

Yesterday (Tuesday the 23) we could see the ripples of the water on the surface from 125' at Wilis Point and the McKenzie Bight!!!

TheBreakwater was clear in the evening too.

We're starting to think you are all crazy to complain about viz It has been great since we got here.

It all depend where you're diving in average the viz is around 20-30 feet.
I did a dive at Willis PT this past Tuesday and it was over 40ft under 30ft. The problem with the Saanich Inlet (Henderson PT, Willis PT, Mackenzie Bight)is that it can change in less that 12 hours.

Sorry I'm a little late posting this, however, I dove 7751 Saturday. The vis was about 20'. Not bad at all. I didn't get many photos, but the ones I did can be found at http://www.scubaboard.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=3578

Only about 20 feet in Brentwood Bay (Saanich Inlet) today. It was like a soup of stringy white plankton and clouds of moon jellies.
