First time seeing Great barrier reef

Tuesday, I got up at 05:30am, had breakfast and headed down to the harbor. I was at the harbor at 07am, where I met up with an American couple that was going on the dive trip aswell, but just for snorkeling. We tried fins on and got a suit, we sailed at 07:30am at 08am we picked up some more people from magnetic island. Now we just had a two hour sail out to the reef. I was seasick from 08:30 to 10 and I threw up three times within 30 minutes. But it was all worth it, when I got out to the reef and into the reef there was no problem. I saw a small blue spotted ray and the Cots were everywhere eating the corals our guide had a stick to poke them off the corals and down to the seabed. Unfortunately, I didn’t get any pictures because of technical issues, but it was a good experience.
I didn’t get seasick on the way home, so it might have been something that I have eaten. I got back to the hostel at 05pm. I was so tired, I just fell into my bed and relaxed for the rest of that day. I had a new roommate who was singing in the shower, ahahah… my roomies went out to party, but it was ok because it was my weekend, so no worries.
