Clovelly (26th April '07)

Hardcore!

The 26th was ANZAC Day here in Australia which meant another public holiday. Despite the bad weather we decided to go snorkeling anyway. And so in the wind and the rain and a freezing (for Sydney) 17C we went to Clovelly beach.

Yellow-finned bream

This was probably the only place in Sydney sheltered enough for safe snorkeling and even then the currents were quite strong and the sea a tad choppy. The water was still a lovely 21C though and despite the visibility being average at best we saw some good stuff. Several nice bream and whiting and also my first Blue Groper!
