Richard Fitzpatrick and myself made a promise to the Citizen GBR organisation to support their mission in recruiting the Australian Dolphins as ambassadors for the Great Barrier Reef. 
We took a day to explorer the local Reefs in front of Cairns, take them snorkelling and give them a chance to absorb the marine world we are fighting so hard for. 
Above you see Mack Horton being mesmerised by this Green Sea Turtle at Vlassof Cay. The only struggle of the day was to keep up with all the camera equipment. Even instruction to the Dolphins to swim slow, we had to realise their definition of swimming slow is not the same as it would be for us :)

Argo Expedition Minke Whale Trip

20/7/2018

Its technically a rule. I cannot let a year go by and not swim with our locally migrating minke whales. 
Luckily a short window opened up and i was able to join a trip of my friend Richard Fitzpatrick and other crew to steam up to the far northern Reefs in the hope to get investigated by these curious (small) giants. 
It didn't take to much time for us to get into the water with the first few. The most important part is to keep them entertained, but having human "bait" in the water at all time.

If you miss this small detail, the whales would get bored and go somewhere else. 
One individual in particular was the main attraction. It would keep coming close, in arm reach, eye balling every one in snorkel gear over and over. 
​Once the minke whale sightings have filled up our memory cards, exploring the remote reef on scuba was on the agenda. A reminder as of why the Great Barrier Reef is called 'Great" !
