[None]We were warned about the luggage allowance on SunAir, but it was not a problem. the resort and all the staff, divemasters and villager's were wonderful, kind, generous and the friendliest people I've met in a long time. We attended a church service in the village to hear the beautiful singing. my bure was large and hidden in the foliage! I had a great view of the ocean and sunsets. Very breezy, and i needed thin sweatpants and sweatshirt in the evenings! the water was colder than I'd expected, so i had to borrow a 5mm wetsuit. I'm a woman, and women will be cold!! Wear teeva's or nothing on feet, when you arrive (and leave), you are taken from the airport by boat to the resort, and you wade to in the water to/from shore. Very casual here, no shoes in lodge! Unbelievable selection of books to read, but they must be returned. The soft coral in Kadavu was disappointing, (much better in the Wananavu Resort area with Crystal Divers on Vitu Levu), but the macro was fantastic. The oppurtunity to mingle with the local villagers was priceless. The food was great, too. My Fiji visit (one week Wananavu, the next Kadavu), was one of my best trips yet. |
