Mnemba Island

Mnemba Island is the ultimate escape. Selected by Condé Nast Traveler as one of the three most romantic ocean destinations in the world, Mnemba surpasses all expectations. The island is an incomparable barefoot paradise: private cottages are hidden in the dappled shade. The soothing rhythms of tide and time will ease your entire being - mind, body and soul.

PAIR OF SEA GRASS GHOST PIPEFISH

Today I can across a pair of these amazing fish! They look exactly like sea grass floating around the reef, hence why they are called Sea Grass Ghost Pipefish.They are usually found in pairs and are quite territorial.

Hopefully we will be able to find them again soon! They are also difficult to photograph as they are constantly moving with the current, and always turning their heads away from the camera.
