We arrived in Exmouth, a small coastal town at the tip The Ningaloo Reef, the reef is WA’s answer to the Great Barrier Reef but the coral is right on the shoreline so we spent the next day, snorkeling up and down Turquoise Bay looking for “Nemo” and we even managed to chase a turtle or two. The coral was amazing too, very colourful. It was amazing to see it so close to the shore only 10m in places, so Samuel got to practice his snorkeling skills and see “Dory” and “Nemo” for real. Steve, Shay and Julie kept snorkelling after the other three had enough and it wasn’t long before we where swimming right next to a loggerhead turtle. We spent a while following him and touching his back before he left.
