    Default P3 conditions

    Does anyone know the conditions at Peacock 3 from the entrance to Henleys Castle? I was thinking about going this weekend, but heard it might not have great viz.
    Thanks

    Default P3

    The reports I've been given-I've not dove it is the cavern is 100' plus and the cave is 60' plus. One team dove it this weekend I think Alan reads the forum maybe he'l respond. We are under a severe weather watch right now which may affect the basin, because the water level is so low right now there is a lot of movement between P1 2 and 3 it's keeping the basins crystal clear for morning but it silts out during the day at P1 from people giant striding and fins disturbing the silty bottom which under the low conditions cannot be avoided.

    Yeah, MSwicord and I dove it this weekend. Basin is clear, cavern is nice, but at 200 ft of penetration, it gets very hazy. Vis drops from 40-60 ft to about 10-20 ft. It's still divable, but don't go in expecting to see near as much. There is a very slightly noticable siphon going on.
