  • Buca Bay, Taveuni, Fiji. We Were up at 3:30 Am to Catch a Plane to the Northern Tip of Taveuni, Fiji’S Third Largest Island, Just East of Vanua Levu
    July 21: Buca Bay, Taveuni, Fiji. We were up at 3:30 am to catch a plane to the northern tip of Taveuni, Fiji’s third largest island, just east of Vanua Levu. The plane was a fourteen seater and flew low allowing a good view of the coral reefs between islands. There are a great many reefs that would not be visible any other way. They are beautiful to see, surrounded by the dark blue, deep waters, and seen in lighter blues and azure. Once Lynn got used to the plane she took many pictures of the reefs below. We met a couple from Australia who were headed for the same ship we were. The four of us got there earlier than the rest and had nearly an extra half day of adventure. A short van ride from the airport got us to the cruise ship Tui Tai. This is a small ship with 12 cabins and during our stay there were at most 13 passengers. Lynn and I were in one of two staterooms on the upper deck. It was cramped and we appreciated the extra space in the the two grand staterooms. This ship likes to cruise the Northeastern part of Fiji that is more remote from civilization. A short cruise took us to a site from which we bicycled to the International Date Line. We could hop from Sunday to Monday and back again. I could not discern any real difference. Then we snorkeled in a beautiful reef (“the farm”) of mixed soft and hard corals.
