I tried my best not to hyper-ventilate as I jumped backwards into the water with all my scuba gear and started my descent. Within seconds, however, the exact opposite happened. My breath was taken away at the beautiful sights all around me. Great walls of coral and millions of tiny fish sprouted all around me as our group went deeper. A jet of bubbles caressed me, as my brother right under me in the water let our a breath of air. Clown fish danced around sea anemones and when I touched a spot of soft coral, it instantly transformed from bright blue to white. This was magic. I was in love…

Exploring Fiji has been such an adventure!! Especially underwater. Being under the sea opens a whole new world. Being removed from our own world and placed into another is the most peaceful feeling. The exotic fish and vibrant coral was really a highlight of this beautiful place. Now that we are leaving and on our way to Vanuatu, I can’t help but wish that we could stay longer in these beautiful places…

Moce Fiji!
