very cool shot, theres a double string (5 in outer row and three in inner) of concrete ships in Virginia to act as a breakwater to a park on the eastern shore just north of the Chesapeake bay bridge, lots of fish congregate there including triggerfish

Amazing, sad I've never seen water like that before. Come to think of it I have only seen drinking water that clear. And never that color, how deep would they be?

Australia’s naval junkyard – in post-World War Two Australia, the Navy had several ships and boats that simply weren’t good for service any longer. So in the early 1960s, 15 ships and boats were sunk off Moreton Island in Queensland. Now it has become one of the most popular and interesting snorkelling sites in Australia.

It is beautiful, but a snorkeling site is about all she wrote. As shown, they could have sunk them in just a little bit deeper water.
In QLD, it is illegal to take ANYTHING while SCUBA, anything. No fish, no shells, not even a rock, nothing. You come out of the water with SCUBA, or have equipment in your boat, you are gonna get rolled at the dock.
You can take some game with spear while snorkel.
Interesting enough, Aussies eat very little seafood other than shrimp on the barbie, go figure, British upbringing I suppose!
Lobster are outrageous expensive, as it all goes to Hong Kong.
I won't even mention that a 6 pack of Bud cost about $24, and its about average price. I think Corona is about $26 per 6!

hey, we are getting to $1 for gas! (well, per liter)

No Cookies | The Courier Mail They are only in about 5 meter's of water , old whaling ships. Moreton Island has the world record for the biggest great white caught. The island has a small resort and every evening you can feed wild dolphins by hand . Beautiful place. I've had my boat there a few times .
