Bokissa Eco Island All Inclusive Santo

... that we will be making an unscheduled stop at Honiara to medivac an idiot teenager who broke his ankle in three places. No-one on the boat was surprised when they found out who it was. He'd been running wild the whole time. Take photos of Savo Island, scene of a crucial battle, before running down the coast of Guadalcanal to Honiara, getting a ...

... a survey with the Reef Check team <br>this morning and will be doing another one tomorrow morning. The reef here is so <br>extensive. I have been trying to practice my underwater photography, but it's <br>tough, the fish are just too fast. The people here have been so nice, though you <br>can tell they are still getting used to dealing with tourists. We had a welcome <br>ceremony when we arrived, complete with live string band music and fresh ...

... by the weight of our belongings. We soon found out why. It wasn&#8217;t long after we recommenced the trek that we encountered the natural obstacle course that we had to navigate. Large rocks and boulders were strewn in our path as we followed the river downstream, and in some sections we had to squeeze between the rocks, through small gaps and tunnels between the boulders, clamber down fast flowing small waterfalls, jump across small ravines and swim ...

Hello!<br>I have made it to Santo! And for the next day or two I have internet access. My trip here could not have been better. Aside from being seasick on the first day everything went perfectly. I had a great time on Rasa Manis with Ellen and Tom. They made me feel completely at home on their boat. I tried to help them out whenever I could but there wasn't really that much to do, so mostly I just enjoyed Vanuatu with them. We spent a ...

... in their natural environment, i.e. not in an aquarium, and it was hard to drag my self away. However, the day was wearing on and I had a date that evening with a volcano. <br><br>Mt Yasur is one of the worlds most accessible volcanoes and is Tanna's major attraction. The walk from bottom to top takes about half an hour, or if you're lazy and drive up you can get to within around 100m of the rim. We reached the summit just as the sun was starting ...

... I gave a glimpse and she was actually right (as always): a veeeery long black stick, whose end was tossing sand around, blurring my vision. Suddenly the sides started flapping and a huge stingray emerged from the seabed just in front of us. Luckily I had not drunk anything for a long while, consequences could have been bad. I also learned that it is possible to sweat under water. Shaking and with hairs pointing up like with a hedgehog we set our ...

... we came through the cargo hold and found plates, Jeeps, and huge fish. The wild life under the sea have taken over the ship and where people once ate and stood watch, octopus napped.   Unfortunately it rained most of the day and we were so deep we don't have pictures to account for our day's adventure.   It was dark inside the ship and bits of light shinned through the port holes, the inside reminded me of a creepy haunted house which I ...

Dip dap, dip dap. My paddle cleanly cuts the mirror surface of Port Vila`s inlet shortly after sunrise. A kayak around Vanuatu`s capital is a great way to explore. Secluded retreats like Seachange Lodge (pictured, www.seachangelodge.com) dot the coastline moving gracefully past my sleek yellow machine. Most resorts big and small in the ...

... the entire white population of the island and some females claiming to be Super models breathlessly waiting our arrival. The idea forming in my somewhat addled mind that they must have been waiting for me, the great white goalkeeper, was quickly destroyed. John had taken the only keg spigot to the soccer so nobody could have a beer till we arrived. John's bar is ....... quaint. The ceiling is covered by numerous Navy White Ensigns with signatures of just about every sailor who ...

... you mince some of that for me please? Needless to say, I think I only ate 1 vegetable the whole time we were there, and that was just garlic that had been tasked with garnishing the prawns that were garnishing the lobster that was garnishing my eye fillet slab. - The inland waterways are beautiful. Be they above ground, below ground (mind that bat guano!), sink holes, blue holes (with the best viz I have ever ...
