Despite rough seas and incoming rain (to the point that the harbormaster had initially closed the port in the morning, but reopened it because the weather wasn’t as bad as anticipated), the visibility remained quite good for these dives. There was a decent amount of current, but a great experience all-around. A lot of the sculptures have acquired a considerable patina of coral, algae, etc. to lend them a sort of otherworldly ambiance. We saw Antropocene (the VW Beetle), Silent Evolution and Silent Evolution II, Biomap, The Banker, The Dream Collector, and Man on Fire on these dives, as well as abundant sea life both around the exhibits as well as the surrounding natural reefs.
