Dived Kelvin Grove on Friday- it was wonderful!!! there was a blooming layer till about 30ft but below that it was great conditions!

Also, Tuwanek on Sunday was epic (besides to silt clouds from doing skills)! viz was about 30 feet and unbelievable! Saw my first Grunt Sculpin, which i have been waiting to see for almost 2 years now!!

Good diving at Porteau today.
20+ in the shallows and a bit cloudier but still relatively good around the middle wrecks.

May 2 - 40' at the Capilano and Vivian...not bad vis for this time of year. Should clear up a month or 2 after the rain stops...any idea when that will happen??

So Dale, Todd, Hunter, Rob and myself dived at Porteau on Sunday and it was surprisingly good viz. Tropical like viz in the shallows then 15 ft or so below that. Opposite of what we expected. Usually this time of year it's the top 30 ft that's soupy and clear below. Wierd. Anyway good to get out again and do some dives.

We did the Lookout Express early in the morning. Vis at the Whytecliff Bay was no more than 10' above 20 ft depth.
