A glorious day on the ocean with calm seas, just enough breeze and beautiful water. We did Jaws first and all manner of creatures were out and about swimming along. The swim-throughs are filled with baitfish and small & medium sized cods just hanging out. Even the octopus were dashing from one hidey hole to another over the reef. The brightest highlight of the dive was a stunning Spanish Dancer rippling from his perch on a small coral outcrop.

We headed to Whalebone for our second dive. All of the usual suspects were there as well as the coolest black boxfish with bright blue spots - he's quite unusual and we aren't 100% sure what he is. The sailfin catfish, endemic to the Ningaloo Reef, were abundant and wiggly everywhere we looked!

Snorkelling was awesome on the gentle current. Lots of turtles, a couple of white tip reef sharks, tons of big angelfish and zillions of neon damsels.
