First day scuba diving at the Great Barrier Reef

Today at the Scuba Diving Course we went out to the Norman Reef on a motorboat. At 8:40 we cast off from the port with prepared fins and scuba diving equipment. We drove for about an an hour and a half before we dropped anchor at Norman Reef - Troppos. The first part of the day we went scuba diving for about an hour and a half before our tanks ran out of air. We did a couple of exercises before we went back. We saw many different types of corals. All of them were so beautiful. We saw black and white tip reef sharks, we found Nemo and Dora, and small rays. It was beautiful. Unfortunately I can't provide underwater footage since we weren't allowed to take our action cameras under water.
