Astounding that this happened. Personally, unless she was taken by a shark, I wouldn't be surprised if there is not more to it.

Hopefully she is found safe and sound.

hope they find her.

i dont think that i would call a diver with 50 dives experienced.

Unlikely she was taken by a shark. Having done the same dive in similar conditions, I'd say it's not a difficult dive if things go as expected. In low visibility it can make things difficult however. It's been inidicated that she had boyancy issues and it's quite possible she was overweighted or had a similar problem. Even with 50 dives, it's easy to forget to release your weights in a panic situation.

This is really sad, I hope they find her alive, or at least can recover her body.

At 8m I would think a medical issue would be the only thing keeping her from surfacing?

Really terrible news.

Latest news is they found a BCD and Scuba Tank near the site she was diving.

Police will give up if they don't find any more evidence in the next few hours.

Looks like this one is going to be a mystery. Unfortunate.
