The high waves made me seasick, but once I was under it passed. The coral here is fantastic and certainly far nicer than the Red Sea. The best part was the giant turtles; they were as long as I am. There were also a great many fish in all colours. Just before the end we swam through an arch of coral. This really is the place I want to come back to!
