The visual observations of 1996 Perseids are reported. Based on over 700 hours of observing time an activity profile from July 15 to August 24 is given. The discovery of a small dip in the activity profile near solar longitude λsun_=~129° (2000.0) is also presented. The maximal Zenithal Hourly Rates (ZHRs) equal to 162+/-26 were noted on August 12.026 (λsun_=139.64°). The possibility of the presence of a double peak with maximal values of ZHR at λsun_=139.64° and λsun_=139.66° is also discussed. The minimum of a population index r were observed around the night of the maximum.
