DAY 156 - 23/07/2010 - Exmouth - Cape Range, WA

Toggs check, snorkel gear check, food and water check, towels check, camera check.....All set to go!!!!

Today we play at beautiful Turquoise Bay.

During the drive there we came across wild emus on the road. How cool is that?

Right now I picture in my mind the walk from the car to the beach. We walk up to and over the walkway onto the beach and my mouth falls open like wow.  It still blows me away. It is beeeeaaautifulll. I have seen so many awesome places but this place so far, is, by far, the best beach I have ever seen and the reef is only a short swim away. Absolutely surreal. Picture postcard perfect.

The plan is to spend all day here sunbaking, relaxing and snorkling. And that is exactly what we did.




This is the first time the girls have snorkled on a reef and they loved it.



Hey.....It's Scuba Steve!


Taylah was so excited to tell me about all the colourful fish she saw in the water. I had to remind her to breath.

Lilly tried to have a go at snorkling but was a little apprehensive. Alicia had a ball.

Waz and I thoroughly enjoyed my snorkling experience here. I have snorkled on the Great Barrier Reef and in Fiji and Ningaloo Reef is by far the best out of 3. The coral was amazing and the marine life was plenty. All varieties and all colours. What an experience. One hard to top.

Later in the afternoon we thought we would check out Oyster Stack and Sandy Bay. We are leaving tomorrow so we won't get a chance to visit it otherwise. The water here was also beautiful but there wasn't as much coral here.
