Snorkelling at Whitsunday Island, Australia

Like I went swimming in a giant aquarium! But in fact, I was "only" snorkelling at the Whitsundays. As part of a day tour, we were given a noodle, a wetsuit and a snorkel and off we went!

In honesty, I am the person that normally doesn't want to know that a giant fish just swim past her legs. I feel super uncomfortable swimming in water that I know has fish in it. But somehow, when I am snorkelling I don't mind that anymore. Gosh, I even admired a reef shark enjoying some leisure time on the bottom without freaking out.

Why is it that while snorkelling I don't realise that these fish are actually swimming around me?

Yes this is a very high quality comment.

I appreciate it more than you'll understand ;)

That's why I like spearing. The fish don't have to be hungry; and there's an element of sportsmanship in find yourself potentially joining them on the menu.

I can't get the image of you spearing Nemo out of my head...
