Wow..what a difference a day makes. We were there on Saturday and the vis was less than 5' (and that's being generous). We had southerly winds on Friday that must have stirred the soup. The offshore winds on Saturday afternoon must of cleaned things out a bit.

Damn...we should have gone on Sunday!

The wind was from the North on Sat morn than shifted in the late afternoon. Morning dives are always the best in HB.

I was there on Saturday morning and it was amazing 70 ft + best i have seen there

Well that is not fair.......we got there about 2:00 and there was not a parking spot to be seen for miles. So, we went to Coronation Park and had a couple of feet Vis max.......I was actually experiencing vertigo for a while I believe because there was so much large floating "stuff" in the water, a reasonable surge and growth of the bottom that flows back and forth with the surge. It was actually kind of cool.

What were the temps like at Humber? They were ~43° down the shore several miles but Coronation Park is terribly shallow.

Yeah I think they were taking out the boats, parking was tight even at 9 am . I believe the temp was 41 or 42 F .

it will be nice in another couple of weeks when she cools way down.
