Well it was an ok night on the highway. The road trains kept going all night but there weren’t too many. I had a pretty good sleep but DB struggled a little. All in all we didn’t have too bad a night in our freebie camp.

Today’s adventure was a trip to Coral Bay. We had been told it was just one street and lots of caravans. Well that was a very true description. The caravan park was chocka block with so many people but the beach wasn’t too crowded. We went for a snorkel starting in the south and drifting down about 500m. We did this a couple of times. It was a little disappointing compared with yesterday’s snorkel at Quobba Point. We had a little down time after this where I actually read my book and had a little rest on the beach. After lunch we headed off on a sand 4WD track to Five FIngers Reef which was south around the headland. We went for a snorkel here at it was as good as yesterday. There were many, many fish, sea slugs, coral and an amazing blue starfish. There had been a turtle, stingray and reef shark in this spot earlier today but they didn’t come round whilst we were out.  Not sure that I wanted to see the shark but it would have been cool to see the stingray and turtle. I stuck close to David just in case the shark made an appearance. It was another awesome experience. The fish were so colourful and varied, big and small, striped and gradients, spots and squiggles, plain and one school of fish where long and skinny with a long sword like nose.
