Frog Dive E-News 15 January 2010 Gday Froggies, Most of the holiday makers are returning to life back in Sydney. John Warner ran the team dive from Balmoral last weekend, and the overall comments were that the dives were good, especially from the boat. A southerly wind kicked up early, which made the ride a little lumpy. The conditions this weekend are better than average, and we know that by the numbers intending to dive and the good forecasts. I suggest if you wish to get on the boat, you better call today and grab whatever is remaining. We have had a great response to Oceanic’s 30% off sale. WEEKENDS AWAY The months of January, February and March are the best times for diving marine life north and south of Sydney. The currents have come in bringing water temperatures of 22 degrees plus, along with many species of pelagic fish. This is the time for you experience the best this state has to offer with regards to these diving conditions.......so we have 3 trips with spots JERVIS BAY FEBRUARY 6TH – legendary nice bloke Bob Holloway is our guide for this weekend.

The boat will be running 3 dives on the day for those that wish to dive somewhere a little different. Since Shelly Beach has become a marine reserve we have seen an abundance of marine life return and considering the depth of the water, it is proving to be a really great site.
