Yeah i found out about the stingrays after I left Australia :S ... I was only worried about jellyfishes at the time (even though I was wearing this 'anti-jellyfishes' suit).

Great !! Stingrays can hurt you but Turtles would never hurt you!!

Thanks! Spotting it was quite easy as it came very close to me. I was trying to chase a stingray when this turtle showed up, out of nowhere! I gave up on the stingray and swam with the turtle instead :)

Beautiful!! how you spotted it I do not know!
