Great Barrier Reef!

We took a really fast boat out to the inner Great Barrier Reef! The Great Barrier Reef is awesome!!! We went to Green Island so we could snorkel and see the reef from there. It took over an hour to get there! The outer reef takes 4 hours to get to!


In the distance the dark blue is the actual part of the reef.  The light blue is just water.
   That's mom carrying some of our snorkel gear.
    Everly playing in the sand.  It was over 90 degrees and it was humid which makes it feel hotter!

We rode in a semi-submersible submarine to get a closer look at some really cool fish and coral. We also snorkeled and saw 10 turtles and 3 manta rays and TONS of fish!!



      Giant fish!!  Ahhhh!
     We really got a good close-up of this fish. 

      This school of fish took was gigantic!  It never seemed to end.
