Coral Bay, Western Australia (again) (March, 2013)

Coral Bay was the consensus highlight of the trip.  Tranquil, aqua waters, lots of shallow beach for the kids to play on, and fine, soft, clean sand make Coral Bay one of the prettiest places we've ever been.  This time we booked a snorkeling tour on a glass bottom boat and it was well worth the $140 for the family.  The reef was incredible, very dense, and with all kinds of different coral and fish.  It was great that even Zander, Nash, and Addy could see all the fish and the beautiful reef under the water with the glass bottom boat.

Alex convinced Eliza to jump in and take a swim with the snorkel on.  They swam out over the reef for about 20-30 minutes and Eliza wasn't scared...a big accomplishment.

Rick, Cody, and Harvey took a walk down the beach to where there was a shark nursery.  Rick and Cody went snorkeling out to look for some reef sharks...only saw one and it quickly bolted away into deeper waters.

Next stop...Canarvon.
