Before Fiji I had a couple of days in LA staying with my most excellent friend Lyndsie. Thanks Lyndz! Fiji Time is Any Time... no need for watchs and clocks. The people are probably the friendliest and most chilled-out people in the world. Fiji exceded my expectations. And my budget.
After a day in Nadi I found the perfect place to head to for some excellent diving... Robinson Crusoe Island on the Coral Coast. I got stuck right into a PADI open water course and withing a few days I was certified (as a scuba diver, not a nutcase) and hooked.
Next I wanted to see some more of Fiji and sample the diving somewhere else. A 3 day sailing adventure onboard a 40' yacht fitted the bill perfectly and I got to see a bit of the Mamanuca and Yasawa island groups.
Then back to Robinson Crusoe for more diving, hammock time and fire dancing before heading to NZ.
Right, time for a quick commercial break. Stay tuned -
Want to dive in Fiji? Check out Nautilus Dive on Robinson Crusoe Island. The dive sites have stunning coral and fish, lots of sharks and a local turltle by the name of Emily. Two very experienced divemasters that came to dive here told me it was
some of the best diving they'd ever done. And the German couple that run the dive shop, Tommy and Nadine, are thoroughly great people.
