I came back on July 1, 2014 to have a proper look at the gorgonian corals I saw in one of my photos taken during the previous dive. Visibility was still about 10' in the shallows, but it suddenly cleared at 30' deep. Like last time, I could see about 80'. It seemed brighter than last time and I noticed that the bottom of the main wall at 110' deep was just a ledge and the wall sloped down farther to what I assume was the bottom of the channel 150' deep. I saw the gorgonian corals at 110' deep near the power cable. The larger ones were about the size of a hand with the fingers stretched out. I swam farther along the wall at this depth than I did last time. There was a rounded reef at the base of the wall dropping into the channel with more cloud sponges. I saw 2 more gorgonians out here. With my 119 cubic-foot tank, I had a limited time out here and I'm sure there must be more corals out deeper. My maximum depth was 120'. Down here on the wall I didn't feel much current. As I ascended to the top of the wall 40' deep, I felt like I was swimming upstream in a river. Next time I'll take the tide table into account.
