Hi there
What a season! Orca, boar fish, blue water, peppered with thousands of schooling fish, and hundreds of smiling faces. We are pleased to bring you this edition of Vis! It is a biggie, so grab a hot cross bun, or an Easter egg, and have a feast!

, cnidarians, molluscs, sea snails, ascidians, and more.

What we are expecting ...
Blue water visibility gets more lucid, water temperature drops 8-10 weeks after air cools topside, we should slowly ease to 18 degrees by June. Bronzies start to be more prevalent, lots more juveniles start to appear by May and some species start winter spawning.
