From Whitehaven we had some lunch on the boat and then headed over to another beach. Here we was all given the opportunity to have a SCUBA experience. Basically you are taught some basic hand signals and how to clear my mask of water, when under water. And finally how to the regulator back in my mouth if I dropped it from my mouth.
So I had my 15 minute experience just on the beach in some waist high water. The girls was no keen to have a go. After the 15 minutes my group was offered to go diving for 30 minutes around the coral for $60. We all immediately said 'yes'. So off we went into the depths. Obviously I was scared to begin with, having never being SCUBA diving before.
The experience was amazing however and well worth the $60. It was not as scary as I thought it would of been. I am definitely sure now that I could do my PADI open water no problems.
That night we saw several sea turtles around the boat, and sea eagles circling above the boat for the food we threw our for them.
