Snorkelling in Riung...

We got up at 7am to have breakfast, before walking to the harbour to go on our snorkelling trip, stopping off at 3 places along the way to pick up snorkelling gear that we had reserved with different people.

Unfortunately, the other 4 travellers we were going with took all the best gear from the town, so we were left with the not-so-great equipment.

Flying foxes

Our first stop on the trip was to see hundreds of flying foxes, flying from tree to tree which was an amazing sight before going to our next stop to do some snorkelling in the middle of the Ocean. It was a really windy day though so it was really wavy, and as there were no fins small enough to fit me it was so difficult to swim against the current. My mask and snorkel also both leaked so I soon gave up and slowly made my way back to the boat highly disappointed to wait for everyone to come back. The next stop on the trip was a lot better though.

Lovely beach

We stopped at a small island and went snorkelling from the beach, which was amazing, and the coral was beautiful so we had a great time there and Rod was kind enough to lend me his mask and snorkel so I could appreciate it as well.
