Reef hopping offshore of Cairns
We had hoped to start heading south but have changed our plans. We are staying a little longer for Bengie to see the vet again and luckily are enjoying a calm week at the reefs offshore of Cairns.

After some 10 days in Cairns, we enjoyed a small break in the wind – four days of below 15 knots before it returned to 20+. It was time to escape the midges and have some fun at the reef, delighting in colourful treasures at Michaelmas Reef!
With persistent 30 knot winds and rain, Cairns harbour gets a bit chaotic so we moved four miles up Trinity Inlet, a first for us. This week we are taking you up the mangrove creeks and their many moods. Get your mozzie repellent on and let’s go!
