Willis Pt yesterday the viz was down to about 20ft max.

Even down deep? It usually clears after 30'.
cjfox:
Yes Charles, 20ft right down to the bottom of the wall. As you know that can change daily, that the hard part about predicting the viz in the Saanich Inlet. One day you get 20ft the next you 75ft. If you dive the Inlet this week-end let me know how it is. I'm planning a dive Monday, if the viz is good enough.

10 feet at Saxe Point this afternoon.

Wow, I hope we'll get better viz in Nanaimo tomorrow.

Visibility at Tanner Rock today was around 3 feet near the surface. From 10-25 feet, visibility was about 1-2 feet (nice and brown). Below 25-30 feet, vis was around 10 feet. I don't know if Spring has hit the Inlet or if it's just a localized Mill Bay-area kick in the head.

By the way, when I was picking up my tank at Ogden Point this morning a diver said vis was around 20-30 feet at the breakwater.

I did a dive at Henderson PT on Monday and the viz was pretty bad at the surface, it clear under 40ft to a range of 20ft at the best.

10 feet or so at Beaver Point on Saltspring. Great site though! Like Ten Mile Point, but with better rock formations.
Someones been harvesting scallops there, lots of fresh empty shells. I thought it was honoured as a local reserve?
