Rapid Bay did not disappoint us this weekend with 10m visibility, minimal currents, warm weather and even the water is not so cold anymore.

Hanging around the t-section of the old jetty we discovered a huge school of Yellowtail Scad (Trachurus novaezelandiae). Initially they were timid but after a while they became used to us, allowed us to swim through them as they parted only to reformed behind us.

Another beautiful diving experience.
