I recommend Fitzroy Island especially if you are into reefing ie snorkeling on the reef. I have done some of the best snorkeling today when we swam around to Nudey Beach. It is a fair way but with 8 an metre depth of vision the clarity was excellent. We started the morning having breakfast with the whales then it was morning tea with the fishes. The numbers of fish are off the scale. The are canyons of coral so you swim beside the walls and follow back out again. There was one wall I came up to but it was more solid. I looked closer until you could see the movement in the wall, a solid wall of the same fish. We also took the glass bottom ride which they have given as a freebie. This was also a good trip with much information about coral growth and quick recovery that ocurrs after bleaching. Eg the bleaching converts everything into a rich layer sediment, just ripe for new growth. After just 10 years there will a 5cm depth of new coral.
