Snorkel on Beautiful Dangerous Coral Reef - At Sumilon island,Philippines
==========================================================================
A bit background about coral reef:
There are four basic type of coral reef.
1. Delicate flowerlike formations
2. Soft or rubbery types
3. Hard stony formation
4. sharp edge stony formation
4th type is more dangerous as coral reefs having razor sharp edges. Pointy tips that can punture the skin and penetrate deep into the flesh. Should be careful with ocean current and doing diving here.
Sumilon island famouse for snorkeling. Tried to reach some extent from sea shore with help of one swimmer ( as i do not know swimming ;-) ).
While snorkeling, tried to touch reef a bit with my Gopro camera to test stability!
Reef scratched my camera snorkle filter and made it unused. But inbuilt camera lens saved!
Wonderful experience seeing different types of coral reefs in beautiful Sumilon island ! Try if no fear but snorkeling is safer in Sumilon island. Captured some moments ... video here!
