this is the Low Isles. it is here that we saw, amongst many other, a stingray, parrot fish, giant clams, a miriad of coral and...and...get this...a sea turtle. we didn't just see the turtle though, we swam with it for like 10 mins. it was incredible. it just floated around, swimming effortlessly and, at the apex of our ultimate enjoyment, it swam up to the surface and popped its head out for a little air. we did the same. we were mesmerized by the turtle, we reckon we could've followed it for as long as it would have us.
