Wow, what a find… and we didn’t have to go deep to find this beautiful Marbled Electric Ray.
We were so excited to find this amazing creature especially in the rock pools. Usually all you see are the mundane fish, such as the sergeant major or the convict fish, than you get the occasional butterfly fish and the snowflake eels getting really upset that you found their awesome hiding spots.
But this is a rare find for snorkelers, at the time of this find we were not certified scuba divers and were just playing in the kiddy pools (if you know what I mean)… I guess you can find more exciting things in the open waters but for the time being we stuck to the rock pools. Don’t get me wrong the rock pools can be quite dangerous if you not careful…
Take this electric Marbled ray for example – It can really pack a punch if it feels provoked or threatened.
Sea urchins are also quite dangerous and if the tide is rough the rocks can hurt you as well. So I guess each sport has its own risks if you are willing to take it.
