Sucks, that spot has claimed a life on the opener for the last few years. It's not the spot but inexperienced divers mixed with way too many people getting lobster fever. People get hit by boats a lot there too.

What a tragedy RIP. Sounds like possible shallow water blackout.

Freediving for lobsters is pretty dangerous at times. Night only elevates the danger. Some guys squeeze into caves underwater on breath hold to grab lobster.
