Snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef

We drove up to Yeppoon, on Queensland's Capricorn Coast (it's where the Tropic crosses).  We spent a day at Great Keppel Island, on the Southern Great Barrier Reef, viewing fish and coral from a glass-bottomed boat and snorkeling on the reef.  Saw some fantastic colors of coral while snorkeling.  Passed on an opportunity to "Boom Net" - being towed behind the boat in a net - but enjoyed watching those who participated.
