Paradise at the lagoon!

After some sweaty hours at the pool, we went for a afternoon snorkeling trip at the lagoon just across the road.

It was almost high tide and after we had crossed the road (it took us nearly 10 minutes) and Guido had found back his fins in the water, we set of half way to the reef drop.

First it started with dull seaweed but very quickly after that came all sorts of hard and soft coral with beautiful fish!

We were curious how it would be just before the reef drop , so we went al little bit further. And that adventure paid off! We saw a stingray, a blue-spotted eagle ray, a enormous mural eel and a sea snake (red, black, white colors) of approximately 2 meters! It was wonderful!

After playing a bit with the triggerfish we stepped out the lagoon to combat the road ones again.

It was a wonderful afternoon and this wasn’t the best site to snorkel / dive in French Polynesia / the pacific. So, I am really looking forward to explore more lagoons, reef drops, etc. !
