Fiji

🐠✨ This trip was packed with unforgettable moments both above and below the surface! We started our journey in Taveuni, also known as the 'Garden Island,' and let us tell you—it’s a true underwater paradise. The rich nutrients brought by the Somosomo Strait have made the reefs here flourish! 🌿🪸 We explored a kaleidoscope of soft corals, swam alongside schools of colorful reef fish 🐟, and took in the awe-inspiring beauty of the underwater world. Although we couldn’t make it to the Great White Wall, we were treated to an incredible Purple Wall covered in delicate, vibrant soft corals. 💜 The underwater colors here were simply mesmerizing!

Next up, we made our way to Mana Island for more diving adventures. At the famous Supermarket dive site, we had the thrilling experience of seeing whitetip reef sharks and gray reef sharks cruising through the waters up close. 🦈💥 It was both exhilarating and humbling to share the ocean with these majestic creatures. Mana’s drop-offs and coral reefs were nothing short of magical, offering a whole new world to explore beneath the waves.

After all the diving excitement, we headed inland for a change of pace, hiking through the lush landscapes of Koroyanitu National Park. The views were spectacular—panoramic vistas of the islands, dense rainforests, and the feeling of being surrounded by nature at its finest. 🌄🌿 We topped off the day with an overnight stay at the Abaca Lodge, where we were serenaded by the sounds of the rainforest before drifting off to sleep. 🏡✨

Fiji has truly been an adventure lover’s paradise, blending the best of both marine and mountain landscapes! 💙 Let us know which part of the journey you loved the most in the comments! 💬👇
