Derek, not wanting to let our long weekend go to waste planned a day out snorkelling for us!
Our first destination was Hillarys, 'Boy in a Boat Reef'. The weather was perfect but as we climbed rocks and located the reef (70m from the rock wall) it became obvious that the sea wasn't as calm as we'd hoped. Derek (being Derek!) jumped in anyway, as did Elise whilst Drew & I stayed on the rocks to look after our belongings (thats our story & we're sticking to it!!). Derek & Elise swam out to the reef but soon returned dissapointed as the swell had made visibilty near impossible. We decided to head onto South Cottasloe where they had been the previous Thursday. I was quite excited to swim this reef after hearing about all the fish they had seen last time, however, again there was too much swell & the water was far too murky to see much at all.
Ice cream (kids) & a nice coffee (adults) at Cottasloe made up for the dissapointment ;-)
