An early start this morning as we were going to trek to the top of the little hill on the island. It was a steep climb but fairly short. At the top, you could choose to follow the signpost towards either sunrise or sunset depending on the time of day. We didn't make it for sunrise but the views of surrounding islands were great!
Snorkelling was where we spent most of our day. Turtles and reef sharks a plenty, though Christine caught a glimpse of a red and white creature slipping into a hole. She remembered where she had seen it and tried to show Darryl after lunch. She knew it was in line with the end beach hut, inside a round shaped piece of coral.
Christine led the way and we searched for the round piece of coral in line with the end beach hut. However, nearly every piece of coral looked the same! We searched and searched and were about to give up when we spotted it. In a hole deep in the coral was an octopus and it was big. You could see his tentacles quite clearly and they had some big old suckers!
When the sun went down, we treated ourselves to a spot of western food ... Pizza!
