Day 69: Coral Bay

Doug & I got up early to be at the caravan park reception by 7:30am so that we could get new sites for the next two days. We then went back to the vans, had breakfast then packed up so that we could move 30 metres to our new sites where we would be for the next two nights.

We were all settled into the new sites by 10:30 so after morning tea we went and hired snorkling gear ($10 per set from the beach borrowing van) and went snorkling on the inner reef. We had a great 90 minutes snorkling then returned to the vans for a late lunch.

This afternoon we walked back to the beach to watch the fish feeding. Doug & I chose to sit on the beach but Lorelle and Sue braved the knee deep water to watch someone feeding fish pellets to the fish. There was a small crowd of 50 or so people.

We had fish for dinner (caught by us at Exmouth) and then played cards. Tomorrow we are planning on going fishing.

    The snorkling was excellent. The coral was alive but it is not as coloured as that on the Barrier Reef. The range of fish life was great. It was very easy snorkling - walk out and drift with a light current.
