Exmouth Diving Centre Whale Shark report - Sunday 25 April 2010

The swell was huge today so we canned the dive and enjoyed a full day of snorkeling instead. The Ningaloo Reef was hopping to make up for the lack of a scuba dive: turles, rays, sharks and more sharks, masses of fish and dolphins. Loads and loads of dolphins - we saw them from the boat and while we were snorkeling - too cool!

We had two under 5m whale sharks today and they were a bit faster and a bit shyer than they have been most other days this season. We still got a couple of drops in and everyone had really good looks and swims so it was a happy day for all!

More snorkeling in the shelter of the reef to end the day gave us pufferfish, anemonefish, more stingrays, more white tip reef sharks and a big school of yellow convict surgeon making a huge racket as they tumbled over the reef.
