Fiji Trip June 2011

Fiji is one of those magical places where the name itself is enough to get reactions. Just mention it to your fiends that you are thinking of going there and see what they say. Palm trees, beaches, friendly locals, soft corals, anemones and who can forget kava! Join us as we explore Taveuni and stay and dive at the Garden Island Resort.

ImageThe Garden Island Resort has long been a diver’s favorite. Fed by the nutrient-rich waters that flow through the Somosomo Straits, Taveuni’s Rainbow Reef is home to one of the world’s greatest displays of soft coral. Famous sites like the Great White Wall, The Ledge and Annie’s Bommie are a short boat ride away.

When you are not diving, the simple luxury of the rooms and grounds will entice you with a feeling of complete peace that is hard to find anywhere else.

When we are not diving, Taveuni offers many wonders to be seen. No trip to Taveuni would be complete without visiting the Bouma Falls and the International Dateline. Truly every beautiful day begins on Taveuni. About a 30-minute walk takes you to the lovely old Catholic mission at Wairiki. The mission is set into the hillside and overlooks the site where Taveuni warriors turned back thousands of Tongans in a battle which was fought in canoes just off the beach. The warriors then celebrated by cooking the Tongans in a lovo (a traditional way of Fijian cooking) and eating them with breadfruit.
