15-20' in Enterprise Channel (McMicking Point) this morning. The water is noticeably greener, maybe from all the sun lately. The bull kelp forest is coming up nicely.

Henderson Point vis was 20-30' in the top 40 feet, then it got snotty and progressively worse/darker.

15-20' in Enterprise Channel (McMicking Point) again this morning.
Ogden Pt was 15' this afternoon.
Madrona Point had 40 to 50 feet of visibility today once we got down on the big wall. Much better than I expected.

Outstanding visibility at Henderson Point this morning. I'd say 40-50' visibility from the surface to down past 120' deep. Of course you have to get there early. At Henderson Point the visibility exponentially decreases based on how many divers got into the water before you.
Dove at Tyee Cove this morning.
10 - 15 feet of visibility in the shallows, mainly due to sunlight penetration.
5 feet of visibility at best at depth (90 feet). :shocked2:
Thought the visibility would get better the deeper we went, but that was not the case.
Turned the dive early and called it a day :depressed:
On a more positive note, only 11 more months until I am back in Cozumel

I did a dive at Denniston Park (Esquimalt) today. Visibility got better and worse as I swam along. It ranged between 10-20'.
About 50 feet of visibilty at Madrona Wall this morning. A whole lot better than the 5 feet we had at Tyee last week.
We saw one big octopus, and one small octopus, and 3 young adult wolf eel's.
Thousands of urchins populating the area, perhaps as a result of the die off of sea stars.
