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 windy weather returning, we knew our days at the reef were numbered and we decided to slowly hop back towards Cairns. We set ourselves a challenge: stop at new spots along the way to make the trip more interesting.
