Great day out!

The way there they were going so fast the girls at our table were sea sick & 🤮. Was much calmer on the way back. If you're prone to sea sickness don't eat an hr before travel & take Travel Calm pill. Other than that it was stunning on Fitzroy 🏝️

Fitzroy

Overall, a very good trip with a couple of caveat. The storage lockers are evidently tied to the Wifi which was down the entire trip. That meant lugging all your gear around. This put a damper on snorkelling as someone had to remain behind to look after the belongings. Also, we carried all our gear to the Summit which really sucked. The view was great, but more signage indicating how vertical this is would have been appreciated. The snorkelling from shore was very good though. Saw whitetip sharks and a lionfish
