    I'm taking the wife to Fiji in July. Last holiday for a while, expecting first rug rat in November. We're staying at the Warwick on the Coal Coast. I am hoping to do a few days diving. I'm pretty sure South Pacific Adventure Divers (SPAD) operate out of the Warwick but their website is down and...

    What's the deal with Fiji?

    It's on our list so we gotta go! My question is, what is the best way to do it? I'm guessing the answer will be liveaboard but who knows. Are there times to avoid due to weather? Are there any seasons for wildlife? Also, it's possible we may have new-ish divers with us. We just whipped them...

    Itty Bitty Rock-Dwelling Creature

    I noticed this guy on my recent trip to Fiji. It was well hidden in a circular rock dwelling. The opening of the hole couldn't be more than a quarter of an inch in diameter. I have had a hard time figuring out what it is! Any ideas?

    Fiji - Nai'i Or Aggressor Liveaboard?

    I'm looking for feedback on these two liveaboard operations. Nai'i receives consistent top reviews, but I can't find anything recent about the Aggressor. It sounds like it had a number of issues a couple of years ago. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Wide Angle for Nauticam RX100 for Fiji Shark Dive

    Hello Everyone, I am in need of some advice on a good wide angle lens for a shark dive in Fiji I'm planning for this year. I've been told that a WA may be better than a fisheye since the sharks may not get close enough to benefit from fisheye which seems to make sense. I have my eye on the...
