30 feet near the end of the breakwater today.
OP
Shouldn't things be clearing up by now?
I did a long dive at the Breakwater last week (115 mins), Scott and I swan from #1 right to the end. The viz was around 40 feet. When we turn the dive the tide was coming in, the viz went from 40ft to 15ft in a manner of minutes. So really it all depend on the tide. 30 ft is pretty good for the Breakwater.
Now I wonder how the viz in the inlet??

Yeah, 30 feet is about the good side of average for the Breakwater. In winter, it usually is much worse (around 10 feet in Dec-Jan, I've found).

Today's Victoria vis reports:
Just South of the Oak Bay Marina= 20-30 feet.
Ogden Point= 30-40 feet.
Brentwood Bay= Awesome! Around 50 feet as soon as I put my head in the water. Once I swam out farther, vis was closer to 80 feet or so around 30 feet deep. That's the best vis I've seen in the shallows in B.C. yet.
