Sunken Ships and Super Snorkelling
... a sunken ship in fairly shallow water so you can snorkel over it no problem. There is also a corol reef nearby so there is plenty of marine life to look at too. We jump overboard and have a damn good snorkel about. The ship wreck is spooky and ghostly and the nearby cove has lots of coral, fish and spiky sea urchins to marvel at. Anna is suprised that there is a ship wreck there, and says she wondered why it was called Skeleton Wreck! Ian's snorkle is letting ...

Basically paradise
After being awake for 30 hours i arrived at the airport in Coron. The plane that took us there was tiny and had proper propellers. Coming in over the sea the pilot told us to look out at this certain stretch of islands. Looked like something off South Pacific or something. Basically paradise.
