West Coast Diving

This weekend I went for a dive at a place called Momi Bay near Nadi on the west coast of Fiji. The weather turned on Sunday but all-in-all it was pretty amasing.

It was the first time I’ve swam with sharks so it was all good – they’re kind of shy you know, thought that they’d be all over me like a fat kid on cake, but no, they ran (swam) away.

It was a great place to dive though, completely secluded and unspoilt.

It was actually a work trip. I had to tag on the back of a tourist dive but the mission was to retrieve a temperature logger that had been placed on the reef nearly 18 months ago.

Happily, we found it.
