The last 3 days I dove 5 times at #23 Supermarket, #26 Charlie's Reef, # 34 Wilkies Passage # 35 Plantation Pinnacle and #31 Namotu Wall.  I saw lots - turtles, an eagle Ray, trumpet fish, pipe fish, banner fish, sharks- 1.5 meters long!, huge trigger fish, an octopus!!! My first ever!! Barracuda, hard and soft coral, etc.  It was great...so colorful.
Here is Dels, our dive master and me as we approach one of the many private islands/resorts-

A speciality of the area is vakalolo, which is fish, often dolphin fish aka mahi mahi, with vegetables and casava, served in a coconut cream sauce.  Delicious!
