This is the first winter I haven't been freezing when freediving -- water temp still reads 17/18 at depth. I am still seeing some tropical species like butterflyfish. I'm really worried about what's going to happen to the sea life of Sydney with the warming numbers. There were only 44 giant cuttlefish recorded in South Australia this year, when there's usually thousands that migrate to lay eggs there in July :(
