Great Barrier Reef

We were skeptical about the massive tour boat and permanent activity platform, but it was perfect in the end with kids. Anna was allowed snorkel for a while when Daniel was on the semi-submersible with the kids. But the best time to go in the water was at the end when all the tourist were done- and Daniel got to see a sea turtle and a shark. The corals species themselves were not very colorful, but the size of the “forests” of corals were really impressive.

In the end, we were most impressed with Alina. She jumped right in and snorkeled in open water! We only practiced once in a pool before the trip. Can’t wait to take her to more reefs in the future!Lue lisää
