Great Barrier Reef Fish

Snorkelling the reefs in the Whitsundays was indeed a very neat experience. There were so many different fish species. The fish and coral kept Karen and I entertained for hours. One day Karen was snorkelling for almost three straight hours. She was almost white when I made her hit the beach and warm up. We both gulped our share of salt water. Burp.

The ocean was so warm. We just wore our swim suits (Aussies call them togs). We saw some people in wet suits and others with a stinger suit on (a lycra one piece suit). There are few jelly fish this time of the year so Karen and I opted to just wear our togs, no budgie smugglers (speedo) on me. That would have sent all the fish to another reef for sure.

These guys came to visit us right at the sailboat.

Angel fish of all sizes were all along the reef.
