Trefor pier - another report

[JohnK]

I`d not dived this site for a long time so it was a pleasure to return, and the weather/wind gods were with us. The journey was great - not much traffic both ways and despite a minor shower on the way it brightened up, warm and hazy above the water, a cool 13 degrees below.

Visibility was 5 - 8m and made for a nice couple of bimbles. Sea life wasnt up to full summer colour but there was loads of little stuff (and the odd big stuff) to see. We managed to see lobster, crabs, shrimps, octopus (2), wrasse, skorpionfish, big eel, small spotty eels, orange coloured pipefish and a fish that we had not seen before - about 6" long with bulbous head, black (maybe dark blue) and white trim around all fins - anyone know what this is ??

Its a small site to we took it slowly, which you need to do to spot most of the stuff.

Sean turned up with Mrs Seanski (sorry, - Malvina), his sister and son and a great time was had by all

As we left the sun was shining. Sea state was millpond - what more can you ask for?

Just watch out for the speed cops - a couple were out today after the A55
