G'day Hive,
I would like to share with you a little video I put together from our time snorkeling at the most southern part of the Great Barrier Reef at Lady Musgrave Island.
Lady Musgrave Island is an hour and a half boat ride out to the island from a little town called 1770 in Queensland Australia.
When ever you head out to the great barrier Reef you are always in for a great day as you never know what you will see under the sea :)
And on this trip we sure were in for a treat.!
The sky was overcast as cyclone Seth was forming but that made for the perfect time to see the coral as it is more vibrant in colour when it is overcast instead of sunny.
The water temprature was just perfect ! and not long after we dove in heading towards the reef, we immediatly spotted a sting ray followed by a reef shark :)
We swam around the bommies which are clusters of coral near the reef wall, these bommies are full of little fish and some larger fish that come and feed here.
Then all of a sudden we spotted our first green turtle!!!
There was two green turtles chilling in the coral so I dove down for a closer look. Then one of them headed up to the surface with me. It was such a surreal experience swiming along side these beautiful turtles!
As we hang out the turtle decided it was time for a feed and started graving on the jelly fish as she swam along.
It was a day at the reef I will never forget!
I hope you enjoy the video and as always
Happy Travels!!
