Houghton Bay - Dive 2

November 23, 2025

Despite the awful visibility on the first dive, we opted for a second dive. This time, we opted to enter on the Princess Bay side. Good choice. There was a slight swell but the visibility was much better and the diving was much better.

After going from 12 kg on the first dive to 8 kg on this dive, Nate's buoyancy control was much better. However, he probably would have been better off with 9 or 10 kg.

All in all, a good day for diving!
