This was by far the best memory I have of Australia. The Great Barrier Reef is incredible! My advice, buy a reusable underwater camera (the reusable ones are only about $10-20 more than the disposable ones) and buy LOTS of film. I’m a fairly good swimmer and it was a little bit scary at first, but once you look at all the colourful sea life down below, you’ll totally relax. Also, stop breathing for a bit and listen to the creatures. I could hear some fish eating algae off the coral. It sounded like someone was ripping grass from a lawn. Very cool!
