Wow...25 days until we are supposed to be there for 2 weeks....My thoughts & prayers.....
Hope you have travel insurance...
I have friends there right now in Tavenui, and some places have been completely decimated.
Be prepared for the possibility your resort may not be open. Power is still out in most places, but get onto them as soon as you can.

We are headed to Taveuni in a couple of months. Bucket list dream trip for the wife she is on pins and needles.
Hope everyone is ok but it looks like Taveuni took a direct hit and that was a huge / powerful storm.
if you hear updates from your friends it would be interesting to hear what is going on.

We are going to the Coral Coast....In the reports they said the southern areas got off lightly, but with the storm surge I wonder what the reefs will be like....I can't imagine they didn't get smoked......Thank god for travel insurance...Now here is to the hope they are upstanding.....

Having lived through a major hurricane, having everything destroyed and the aftermath my heart and prayers go out to everyone there.

Judging from the pictures in the link that Dave_Lucas provided, I would cancel any plans to dive their soon. God bless the Fijians!

Yikes! Prayers go out to the people of Fiji and other affected areas. We are (supposed to be) headed to Taveuni in a month. Not a good sign when your resort shows up in the devastation photos.................
