-More from May 11, 2007. I haven't been here in awhile. Visibility wasn't the greatest (about 15 feet), but it was good enough to see all the stuff that makes this one of my favorite local spots. It was also nice that I wasn't being blown around by the current.
I tried again 2 days later. I wanted to see what it was like out to the right on the far side of the shallow, sometimes-exposed reefs. Despite the assurances of the current- calculation software, the current was too strong to swim against. Fortunately it was going in the right direction and I let it push me East towards my usual sewer-pipe area. The backside of the reefs wasn't that impressive. The rock was pretty bare (at least for Enterprise Channel) and there weren't many fish. Eventually I reached the sewer-pipe reef and all the good stuff just in time to head back to shore. Visibility wasn't great again. -Probably closer to 10 feet than 15.
I came back on July 22, 2007 with other divers for once. The Tideview current prediction program was off again. There was supposed to be no current, but there was actually too much to make it out to the good stuff so we just hung around close to shore. A couple of the guys hung around for a second dive (I had to go). They said that by then there was no current and they made it to the end of the pipe. I guess with Enterprise Channel, you take what it gives you.
