Planula Bed and Breakfast Retreat, Byron Bay

A manta ray was sighted at Julian Rocks! Very exciting, but unfortunately not everybody was that lucky.

Large bull rays swimming around and the blue spotted stingrays are just going off. Different hawksbill turtles were seen as well. Fish goes crazy this silly season No further Leopard sharks have been sighted.

Hope everybody had a great Christmas and we at PLANULA are wishing you all a fantastic, healthy and safe 2004 with lots of diving and snorkelling. See you out there
