Exmouth Diving Report - Muiron Islands Wednesday 10 March, 2010

Another sunshiney, hot Exmouth day took us out to Muiron Islands for diving & snorkelling. Whalebone looked amazing from the surface, so we dropped in here for the first dive of the day. Whitetip reef sharks, turtles, yellow boxfish, trevally, nudibranchs, goatfish, barracuda, blue spotted stingrays...everything was out and about showing off for us!

Keyhole's visibility was quite a lot lower than our first dive, but the site more than made up for it in sheer numbers of fish. All the usual suspects were hanging around as well as a couple of stealthy brilliant yellow trumpetfish hanging almost motionless upside down as they waited for a meal to come to them, a few fat stars & stripes pufferfish, some timid octopus and a solid school of flaming red cardinalfish. There were also nudibranchs of all hues dotted the reef. It was tough to decide which dive tickled us more today!
