Robert's Ramblings

The small coastal township of Edithburgh in South Australia hosts one of the world's best jetty dives. It comes as no surprise to me that it is here I did my very first dive as a newly certified open water diver on the 23rd of February 1990 and to this day it remains my favourite dive.

I have lost count of how many dives I have done here now but still it never gets boring. On almost every dive (where I am not teaching) I see something new, take better photographs than the time before or just experience being in this very special place as an absolute privilege. When I am teaching I am reminded of the thrill and exhilaration of experiencing this world for the first time.

This photograph of a Black Cowrie on one of the jetty pylons is typical of the beauty here. Ascidians, sponges and algaes abound covering every available surface. The fact that this image was taken earlier this year is testimony to the respect and care divers afford this site. As for describing the other marine life to be found here, I'll just say come and see for yourself. You won't be disappointed and you will be back for sure, many times over!

Until the next post, take care out there and keep diving ( if that's what you do! ) ...Robert

As I see it there are two main problems with the idea of 'best practice'. They are suitability and mediocrity.
