Reef-tacular!!!
Wow what an awesome trip. As ever we had a lot of return passengers/friends sailing with us again. Beware once the Fiji diving bug gets you it's hard to shake. Our itinerary for this ten day action packed trip included the Namena Marine Reserve. An awesome diving spot that just has so much to offer. From Grey Reefs cruising on the drop off at NSAT to Pygmy Seahorses on Tetons in the south. Also Namena is home to our little friend the Unidentified Pipehorse Fish - their hideout is only known by Nai's dive masters, so if you want to find them you know where to come!!!

“Joann & I had a remarkable experience here in Tonga! Our diving trips mostly entail liveaboard boats and this one was the best yet – great crew & great food! You are fortunate to have the ownership in place to allow you to do it right! We won’t easily forget our “Whale Week” on NAI’A – it’s a once-in-a-lifetime gig!!”
