St Abbs's Sunday 04-May-2008

Seagull Rock, the only Diveable site on the Day, the forecast was SE winds but we ended up with NE/East winds which combined with a Flood Tide gives you big swells....Anyway thanks to Tom we managed two dives.

This sites is shallow with a max depth of 10-12m at the seaward side of the rock, lots of life.

Deadmens Fingers and Sponges on the Rock wall, lots of Lobsters and Crabs under the rocks and in the Summer Octopus can be seen in the cracks and holes, and in the 'Cave' at the Seaward side.
