Great Barrier Reef

We missed the reef diving trips at Cairns and Cape Tribulation, so took the opportunity here at Mission Beach to show the boys the Great Barrier Reef.

It was yucky weather on the surface, but the swell was manageable and the visibility below was okay. We saw some amazing coral and fish and some giant clams. John pretended to get his hand stuck in one. He thought it was funny, but we (novices) did not.

It was an amazing dive (three actually) and only 45 minutes from Mission Beach. We haven’t agreed on which is better: Great Barrier Reef or Ningaloo Reef on the west coast. Perhaps we should visit there again to refresh our memories!
