The REEF gang had a super cool 10 day trip on the Naia from April 12-22. Clau and Chris got us as a group and so did all the crew. We know we are a little different group, with our heads in a nook looking for crazy little gobies and blennies, and constantly trying to learn the names of all the fish. Thanks for embracing our theme and joining in the hunt for all the new and different species of fish that Fiji has to offer. Also happy to see you use the pictures I shared with the you. They look better on you blog that on my little laptop computer!

And having just been diving in the Carribean in January it was wonderful to see the reefs and walls in good health. Lots of fish density as well as diversity. We hope Fiji continues it's efforts to maintain the marine environment helath for many years to come!

Such an amazing first trip with the Nai'a and it will not be our last! We enjoyed every minute of it and cannot wait to join them again! Thank you to the amazing staff! What an amazing trip! Highly recommend!

Thank you everyone! We had a wonderful holiday with all of you!

Thank you everyone for such a great week together! We made memories for life!

Thank you to all the crews on the Nai'a. I felt very safe diving with the best crews. We had a great time.
Fiji is truly the "Soft coral capital of the world". Amazing colors and fish life! See you all again in a few years.

What a great and memorable trip Glad to have been at the rescue.

Thank you, and God Bless You and that precious whale.

I'm in tears.

What an amazing 9 days, it was truly beyond any of our wildest expectations!! So many beautiful encounters and the icing on the cake, a successful whale rescue! Many many thanks to Chad, Vanessa, and the rest of the hard working Nai’a crew, everyone was so awesome!! We will definitely be back!

Having been with the Nai'a on a Tonga voyage, I'm well aware of their devotion to these great mammals. This is an amazing example of their commitment and courage. Congratulations and thank you to all.

What a wonderful story. So sad that it had happened, but so grateful for your successful efforts.

Venessa, that is an excellent and detailed account of how to successfully effect a whale rescue under very trying conditions. I have no doubt you were at the forefront and led the rescue effort. Well done! From your first hand account there are some valuable lessons and do’s and dont’s. Worthy of publication in a journal I think. Great effort and well done to you and Chad and Big Mo and the team. I’m book for Tonga for next July. See you then!

Gorgeous pics!

Words can not even express the magic of this trip. The crew was amazing. I wanted to take them all home with me and play guitars all night. And yes I would find some Kava! Thank you all so much for this experience.

It was one of the most amazing time in my life, thank you Vanessa, Chad, Big - Mo, Suli and all other lovely crews for your hospitality. And please come and look for another whale pictures in my page :
