Wednesday 30 September: Finally we made it to the reef
So we finally managed to book a reef trip for today with a different company: Ocean Free which is also a family owned business which runs a sailing ship with a maximum of 25 passangers at a time - just what we were looking for.
We had a great day on the reef snorkelling and admiring the coral, and even swimming with sharks. We also saw sea turtles and visited Green Island.
