I booked at 7:30 to go on an island hopping toor around some of the local islands and lagoons.

Tour starts at 9:00 so I went and had some breakfast and the like with a chap from my dorm that I bumped into and also then signed up to the tour (A Canadian called Nick, I always seem to hang out with Canadians, they’re all so nice).

There are so many stores that offer the tours! Loads of people have boats and take you out, they are quite officially done so that they’re all about the same price, include the same sites etc. Everywhere on the first road off the beach is either a bar a diving shop or a tour booking place. Loads of people have tour boats, it’s good money for those who can.

The tour started with a long boat ride out to one of the other beaches on this island only accessible by sea: there was loads of coral there and thus loads of great fish to see. Oh yeah we had snorkels and masks on the boat, I’d never done it before so I got as involved as possible. It was amazing! I love it so much!

Then next stop was called the big lagoon which was in an island, there was loads of amazing fish their too, but to get to the lagoon you had to walk over shallow broken coral areas, it was soon sharp! I cut my left foot up. I should have taken my flip flops and in, or invested in one of the kayaks. But it was cool when you got to the lagoon, very very deep, I didn’t think to dive down, but it was very warm too. Then I had to come back to the boat for time reasons.

Then we went to the small lagoon, this was much quieter, and we hired a kayak for here, it was beautiful! The water was so clear that you didn’t need to snorkel, you could see all the fish from their surface! It was a great place!

Then we went back out to the boat and had a feast of a lunch! 🙂 Fresh fish, pork, chicken, rice, cucumber, egg plant, water Mellon pineapple, mini bananas, it was amazing! I finished everything off (of course).

Then we went to the secret lagoon, the lagoon was okay, it was through a tiny cave, but the beach there was absolutely amazing!!! 1 small hut, loads of amazing sand, incredible views, breathtaking.

Then we went off to other places, but I forget where, so many beautiful places! Then we had to go back, but it was all so amazing! Unfortunately I couldn’t take photos in most places, due to fear of water damage.

Then when we got back to the beach, after a shower we went to the beach on the other side of the island and watched the sunset, it was so beautiful! Then got some street meat and an early night… Well when I got back I found out that when diving I had got some sunburn, even though on the boat I always stayed in the shade and wore lots of sun cream. But none of it was too bad, but I treated it all well.

Another amazing day.
