Turtles of Lady Elliot Island
Lady Elliot Island is located on the southern tip of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Its home to more then 1,200 species of marine life life including manta rays and turtles. Luckily enough for these species their home of Lady Elliot Island is a 'Green Zone' which means there is no fishing aloud, allowing these species to thrive.
Lady Elliot Island is especially known for the abundance of turtles, they are everywhere! Luckily for most people you don't need to able to scuba dive to see these incredible animals, you are able to snorkel straight from the shore.
Going to be a scorcher here today in Australia - 38 degrees celsius. Im off to the beach, hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Wow, what another world! This looks so much fun!
So much fun!
I love to see turtles under water. It always amazes me to see how smooth they swim and maneuver under water.
So graceful!
Love Lady Elliot Island. Been there several times but not for almost 10 years. Must be time to go back.
Amazing hey! Its getting very popular now due to instagram.
Yep. They used to do great offseason specials for locals but they never seem to have a offseason anymore.
You have such a cool "job."
OK. I'm done stalking you now. I'm off to bed.
