After Bicheno we traveled down the east coast to Eaglehawk Neck dive centre to link up with the taxonomists.The diving here was on spectacular walls beneath towering cliffs and in enormous caves and splits. Big swells and surge are the norm and sites had to be carefully selected by Mick the skipper.
We found numerous new nudis, hydroids and pycnos and had a wonderful 6 days.
The accomodation was a bit cramped and basic with a big group but the spectacular diving made up for it. The dive lodge needs more cupboards and benches and that Tongtel TV needs to be dumped. Oh, and the electricals need an upgrade to stop the regular circuit breaks whenever the fridge started up.
Even though we were only 1hr from Hobart there was no Optus or 3 mobile coverage but Telstra mobile still worked.
