So peaceful and warm, lots of fish, and saw a Skate! Also found a ton of Vancouver Sapsuckers on the eelgrass that I have never seen before. Viz was good enough and what I consider great for summer
A silty 5-10 feet, 5 feet in the shallows (incoming tide)
Went to find big jellyfish and striped Nudibranchs - found neither 😆🤦🏼♀️ visibility was pretty bad, I dove on flood which is probably why. Still peaceful and saw tons of perch, flatfish, crabs, and sea pens. Huge jellyfish run through here in July/August, just dive on ebb and the Vis should be better
