Just north of Monkey Mia we stayed in Coral Bay. It's a tiny, mostly tourist town on the ocean. From up the beach you start snorkeling and let the current take you back down about a kilometre. We saw small sting rays, a small eagle ray (they look like they're flying through the water), many parrot fish and other pretty things. Kevin and Kyra saw a green turtle dining on algae. We stayed 3 days and snorkeled everyday.
This little gecko hung out by the sink where I did dishes in the campground. We see these guys everywhere in Australia. They have sticky feet so we usually look up to find them in campground washrooms. They hang out near lights and eat the bugs. One day we saw one with a big grasshopper hanging out of it's mouth. They're not more than 12 cm long, and the babies are only 4cm. They're very cute and hard to catch, as the girls found out.
