I realize that everyone's "local" diving conditions may be quite varied and diverse from each other's -
So I was wondering . . . just for curiosity purposes only . . . what would you consider "great" visibility, "good" visibility and "poor" visibility in your local dives as far as distance? Also, what type of diving do you primarily do - i.e. freshwater (quarries, lakes, springs, etc.) or in the ocean?
For me, in my limited experience, right now I have only done diving in the ocean.
Great visibility would be 70 ft +.
Good/average would be 50 - 60 ft.
Poor/I feel uncomfortable visibility is 15 feet and below.
I suppose the more experience I get, this could change - at least as far as the "poor" consideration.
