冷たい　＠神子元

最近は強い風が続いていて、なかなか神子元でダイビングができませんでしたが、
やっと今日は久しぶりに神子元に潜ることができました！
クローズ明けの神子元はというと...。
涼しい風が吹いていて、「もしかして海も冷たいかも？」と思っていたら、予想通り水温が低め。
一番冷たいところでは19℃くらいで、場所によっては25℃ほどの温かいエリアもありました。

うねりは少し残っていたものの、水中は特に問題なく潜れました。

久しぶりに出会った神子元の魚たちも、みんな元気いっぱい！
イサキの群れ、タカベの群れ、ツムブリの群れ、ムロアジの群れなどなど...。
そして、なんとハンマーの群れにも遭遇できました！

明日もまた神子元へ行ってきます。
水温、もう少し温かくなってくれるといいな〜。

Recently, strong winds have kept us from diving at Mikomoto,
but today, we were finally able to dive there again!
So, how was Mikomoto after being closed for a while...?

A cool breeze was blowing, and I thought, "Maybe the water will be cold too."
Sure enough, it was quite chilly when we got in.
The coldest spots were around 19°C, but there were some warmer areas too, reaching up to about 25°C.

There was still a bit of swell left, but underwater conditions were fine and we had no trouble diving.

It was great to reunite with the fish of Mikomoto after so long--they were all swimming around energetically!
We saw big schools of fish like grunt, yellow striped butterfish, rainbow runner, and amberstripe scad.
And best of all, we got to see a school of hammerheads!

I'll be heading back to Mikomoto again tomorrow.
Hoping the water warms up a bit more!
