Day 123 – 19th September – Exmouth National Park

Today we had the pleasure of snorkelling at one of our favourite spots, the drift snorkel at Turquoise Bay.  We were super excited to get out there and happy to finally have Megan big enough to join us.  Here’s the kids getting kitted up…  



As usual, we were treated to an abundance of marine life.  We saw a couple of turtles and some octopus along with a multitude of weird and wonderful fish.  


On our last snorkel we even managed to find a white tipped reef shark hiding in a cavern under a big coral boondie.  



We came back to camp for lunch and waited out the afternoon sea breeze.  Once the wind died down we thought we’d try a snorkel off the beach where we are camped.  Unfortunately, it was no Turquoise Bay.  What we had assumed was coral turned out to be just rock and seaweed.  The only thing of significance we saw was a turtle coming up for air right in front of us… that was pretty cool…
