Great night dive last night.
ended up only doing one dive out at King's Beach.
8 of us hit the water at 7:40 and did a 51 minute dive with a max depth of 36 feet.
air temp was 78 degrees surface temp was 73 bottom temp was 66. Vis was just the better side of 10 feet. with occasional spots out to 15 feet.
Saw a few tropicals on entry. then lots of scup and flat fish. On the way back in Jason and Tony saw a 2-3 foot dogfish right near the exit point.

very nice dive.
