Butterfly Bay

17th Sept 15 Afternoon

 

Moved to the Hook Island for the night, Butterfly bay is on the North side.

 

The picture doesn't show the colours or size, but this
shell was the size of 2 flippers and a very bright purple.
 

After lunch we dinghy'd to Alcyonaria
Point, jumped into the water to do more
snorkelling, while dragging the dinghy
behind us. The water was a lot clearer.

 



Went ashore for a walk along the creek bed to see the
colony of butterfly with Ric, Zoe, Harry and Ollie,  Dave and
Noel and their friends

Setting up a cricket game on
the beach. Not much sand, mostly
crushed up coral.

On our way to sundowners we saw a baby stingray, had time to take a photo
not always possible with the loud noise of the dinghy motor and they move so fast.



End of another wonderful day
