Last Saturday we went with the senior missionaries to a beach that is a marine reserve for the giant clams. We had to swim out to a giant ring of buoys which was quite a ways off shore, but pretty shallow.
Pretty cool that this beach is closed on Sunday!
We were so amazed at the size of the clams! They were many different colors and sizes.
Here are a few examples of the marine life.
While we were coming back in to shore it started to rain. Then we heard thunder, saw lightning and it began pouring!! The rain here is so warm we don't mind it at all. But a thunderstorm in the water is not great. Here is a picture of Marc in the rainstorm and one of me snorkeling out to the clams.
This beach is so beautiful, but not your typical white sand beach. It is really rocky and has tons of coral. The water is a gorgeous turquoise even when the sun isn't shining.
We love to snorkel here in Samoa and hope we get to do some more before we go.
