Incredible! Beautiful pics of so much stuff that the average diver just swims right over.

Really nice videos and information. Makes this another set of stops on the ole scuba bucket list.

We were there the week before and didn't have anything affected. Town was nuts and a few places that are normally open on Sunday were closed for the crowing of the king and queen but otherwise business as usual. We found it more crowded than other times of year and the rates for the hotels...

Booked Beqa for 6 nights and Volivoli for 7 nights deciding to save island hopping air trips to Tavuni for next visit.

In these shots from October you can see the finger corals that have mostly all been bleached- some deeper reefs were not this bad but there were two other kinds of corals that were not doing well either. There is a trip report thread a few days back that had some very detailed pictures of the...

I left a few days before this. We had one week of bad conditions from Oct 14-21 where the port was closed two days and then open two days but prob should have been closed - the result being two small boats flipped while coming around the cruise ships dumping a bunch of snorkelers into the sea...

Thank you- great detailed article about SCTLD.

Thanks for keeping us riding along all trip! That cozumel weather has been a big player in the dive schedule lately for sure.

My guy made a joke about 'you don't have like a bag full of Viagra you're bringing back or anything?' I said no and then immediately thought of the single bottle of Flexeril in my backpack. The guilt and shame was real. hahah. JUST KEEP WALKING AND BE NORMAL>>>>> :wink:

I don't know if it's been addressed in the forum but there is a bit of a surprise at the airport since February. The area from where you grab your bags and head to the green/red button all the way until you are outside is a different layout now. Once you get your passport stamped (no forms on...

I would love to understand the difference between SCTLD (which we saw in Bonaire on brain corals and other hard corals) and the bleaching I just saw in October in Cozumel. SCTLD was explained as a disease that starts as a spot and spreads on a coral until the coral dies killing both algae and...

Just sent a message to Waidroka as it looks like a really great option and chops a bit off the commute from LAX vs going all the way to Beqa.

It's for this April 2024 and I've got a slot at Beqa lined up. Booking.com is showing one room left at both VoliVoli and at Taveuni Dive resort (paradise is full) as well as Garden Isle Resort. I've contacted the properties directly to ask as I prefer to book direct if I can. The LAX to NAN...

It was your review that made me want to go there! There is a lot of 'beqa ain't great and the shark dive is fake/unnatural' but yours was so positive that it made me change my mind. I've not been diving anywhere but California, Hawaii, Cozumel and Bonaire in 30 years so it's all going to be...

Hey all, So me and my dive buddy have made the decision to go to Fiji and spend 6 nights at Beqa and do the shark feed plus reef dives. After that we want to transfer to another location and are choosing VoliVoli or Taveuni. I wanted to ask about timeline and preferences...we have 15 calendar...

Captain Jose got us home!!!

I'm so sorry for the people that have lost their entire trip this week to the Nortes!!! I was just there for two weeks and lost two days the first week, but had great conditions for nearly all of the dives. Coral bleaching is evident in your video but much of what you show is exactly what I...

Sorry for anyone left high and dry today. Have fun exploring or going to the museum or a beach club!

Downloaded dive computer today. Not a bad way to spend a couple weeks.

The gusts are strong but the direction bodes well for diving being open (at least in my experiences) but some of the southern sites might be closed (from Palancar south). Will be interesting to see how it plays out once it arrives. Two weeks ago the wind was similar strength and as long as it...
