Exmouth Diving report - Lighthouse Bay Monday 12 July, 2010

Beautiful morning to head to Lighthouse Bay for a couple of dives. We started at Labyrinth and were delighted to find more turtles than we could count, some roving white tip reef sharks, big batfish lining up on the cleaning stations and big many spotted sweetlips hanging out all over the site. There were lots of small schools of trevally and a couple of big groups of mid-sized barracuda, too.

Blizzard Ridge had lots of action big and small today. Multiple olive sea snakes came up to give a look and wobbegong sharks slept under quite a few ledges. The cleaner shrimp were all busy with various cods plus some small damsels. We found a very cool ghost pipefish pretending to not be there and our stripey pair is still tucked back in their hole. Lionfish were everywhere - laying on the reef with their fins tucked in and floating just above the sand, slowly twisting this way and that in the small surge.
