Underwater Beverly Hills
... to the little glas bubble that was the cockpit the whole way, you can imagine how big my grin was! Approaching Kadavu was a bit like viewing Kong's Skull Island, except better weather and nicer coral reefs. The landscape looked decidedly murderous ...
Autiosaarella
Buukattiin respasta liput 9.30 lähtevään botskiin. Tarkoitus oli ehtiä helposti 12.40 lähtevään flygariin Nadista Kadavun saarelle. No, botskihan oli snadisti myöhässä ja päästiin lähtemään Treasure Islandilta kybän aikoihin. Kelattiin et ...
Back to Kadavu
Veikko ja Ratu Jo lahti jo eilen kohti Kadavun saarta. Itse paatin kuitenkin menna lentokoneella perasta ja saastaa vahan jalkaa silla. Pikkasen on arvokkaampi vaihtoehto, mutta myos hieman mukavempi ja nopeampi (45min. suunta). Onneksi paatin menna ...
Dolphins off the bow!
The following day was the one where my sailing really seemed to all come together. Watching me and the little mistakes that I kept making, Jim succeeded in explaining the mechanics of sailing in terms that I could understand. Finally I could recognise ...

We spent four days diving round Ono, eight dives in all, with a rest day in the middle, spent reading, drinking Glenlivet and practicing adjusting the colour balance on dive photos to stop everything looking quite so blue... Jim proved very good at ...
Paddle to a village

Good Times on Galoa
... & safety. After the hectic pace of Suva, I needed a value for money place to stay on one of the outer islands. I chose Kadavu, as I had heard good reports from people who had been there. I flew there & looked up Reece's Place in the Lonely Planet ...
Love in the Pacific
... of palm leaf and then banana leaves and left to cook. Before having dinner there was a kava ceremony, the traditional drink of Fiji. Whenever there is a meeting or ceremony of any sort, the kava bowl comes out. However, it seems it can come out ...
Stumbling in the mud
... up in these areas. So much so that the governement of Fiji has put a protection on this ecosystem. These are the last Kadavu pictures. We were very sad to leave our gorgeous island. I would definately recommend a trip over if anyone is ever ...
