12/03/2012 – Gropers, Mermaids & Penguins

63 Bold & Beautiful swimmers.

It was as gorgeous as predicted this morning with calm, warmish and clearing seas 🙂

 

 

 

 

 

Roberto and Simon had an early swim up to Queensie and were back in time for Roberto to rush off to work and for Simon to join us into Shelly 🙂

9 swimmers continued on for a double lap and were rewarded with an eagle ray and a penguin !!!

The visibility is improving, check out some of our beautiful marine life this morning including a stunning blue groper, a mermaid and a sting ray convention just off the beach.

 

 

 

 

A couple of fantastic photos from Gaetan that may leave you feeling a little crabbie and open mouthed 😉 🙂
