#snorkelling

0 posts0 participants0 posts today
Been watching the seals the past few weeks along the coast path when out on runs.

Some have been basking in the sun on the surface, bobbing along, others have been moving frantically just below, potentially hunting and others just moving gently along like the one in the picture.

Photo taken whilst freediving a few years ago and looking forward to getting back in at some point this year after a winter of swimming and surfing, as fun as they are, nothing beats enjoying the natural world below the surface too!

How mesmerising it is to watch this whale shark (Rhincodon typus) descend into the ocean’s depths with some remora (Remora remora) on its tail. 🐋

There’s a surprising amount we don’t know about whale sharks even though they’ve captured the world’s imagination, and swimming with them has catapulted them to the top of many people’s bucket lists.

Happy World Ocean Day – an opportunity to appreciate the incredible seas that cover more than 70 per cent of the Earth!

Just beneath the surface is a world teeming with life, such as this humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae), a gentle giant that lives up to 90 years and sings beautifully haunting songs that echo through the ocean 🐋

@HerraBRE Yes, snorkelling is one of the most underrated activities. I've dived and snorkelled in different places and you will see much more and more clearly in a few feet over a reef than diving.

Both are great but anyone who hasn't tried #snorkelling should consider it. Even in UK it can be amazing, well worth buying the kit for (shortie, snorkel and fins), or hiring for a taster.
