Here's how it went:
1. Put on swimsuit, boardies, baselayer (chilly water!)
2. Look good in snorkel mask and fins.
3. Walk backwards into water so you don't fall over.
4. Swim out about 5 metres
5. Congratulations, you are inside Finding Nemo.
It was absolutely amazing, colourful fish and coral everywhere, so close to the shore, and so close you swimming that you had to really careful of not damaging the coral with your fins. It was pretty tiring swimming as the current in some parts was strong. It was best at one beach to swim out, drift with the current along about 200m, swim into the shore (very hard), then get out, walk along, and go again!
No underwater camera, but i've borrowed some pictures, and here's some of the fish names...
Racoon Butterfly fish, Damsel fish, Angel fish, Maori Wrasse, Parrotfish and huge Manta Rays, bigger than my arm span as I floated above them.
