This is the beach area which disappears at high tide near the Point Lonsdale village. We tried the snorkel here for the first time today. The tide had dropped from 1.6m tp 0.8m so had halved by the time we arrived at 9:30am. Crowds were already setting up but we only needed some towel space for less than an hour. The tide was getting lower and there was no sunlight but visibility was reasonable. There are channels between the ridges and foliage. I headed straight across the growth field with just enough water for clearance. A better way is to find a channel to the beach then use that. There were good sized fish and the largest ray I have seen. It had three large fins along the tail. Coming back in I was getting caught on vegetation but got thru.
