Thanks, be good to hear from anyone in the region.

Thanks Golfinho...

Well, at the moment we have 22-24 degrees, depending on the prevailing winds.

In April you may get 22-26 At Byron, and 20-23 in Sydney, all depends on the winds...

There are heaps of shops that sell fins, masks and wetsuits. Almost any coastal town will have one.

For monofins you may need to order online.

I live an hour south of Sydney btw.

Paolo, you lucky dolphin! You don't need a 5 mil at those temps. I start using my 3 mm after 16 degrees. It's still around 12-13 here, but it's warming up.

Hiya!

Check out Extreme Spearfishing in Sydney, do a google search to locate their web site, you should be able to hook up with a few guys on there.
If you end up in Southern-Central Queensland, drop me a line.

Cheers

Cheers Hunter,

P.M. me details of your location as I might be heading up that way shortly.

Thanks for contacts in Sydney. You guys are a friendly bunch.

See you in the hopefully not so cold waters.

Ciao! Golfinho
