Day 2
We arranged for
a snorkel and went to Rocky Point which is a shallow reef between two rocky
outcrops. Peter couldn’t snorkel because he still had an infected ear. There
was a lot of fish of many different types and some lovely bright blue coral
growing.
Nick and Lachlan did an introduction to scuba diving lesson that went
for 3 hours. First they did some theory and then they went into the water in
their scuba gear off the beach. After that they went in the boat for a dive of
about 5 metres between Gilly Reef and Sting Ray Avenue. Although Nick was
excited and a little nervous to be scuba diving he didn’t observe much
different to when he snorkels. Peter and Jon went for a walk along the beach
picking up rubbish and putting it in garbage bags. The area in front of the
resort is clean and tidy, and there is not much rubbish in the water however
either side of the beach there is a lot of rubbish on the high tide line. A
lazy afternoon in and out of the water snorkelling and swimming, and then in
the late afternoon a storm came across and we watched the lightning splay
across the sky.
