On our second day we took a ride in the dinghy into a sort of inlet which had many mangroves. It was a delight with masses of turtles everywhere. However trying to catch them quick enough for a photo was hard!

We were treated to an abundance of wild life in the bay with marvellous reefs also

This was a cloud of tiny fish!

Then there were the sharks! These are nurse sharks and harmless!!

This one was magnificent about 8/10 feet long and called a lemon shark because of the lemony hue over its colour. Look carefully and you will see other fish hanging onto it that travel with it hoping for titbits!!
