September 2008: South Pacific
Musket Cove, Malolo Lailai Island, Fiji Pt 2 (S 17.46.232 E 177.11.381)
Bob and I went out for a 2-tank morning dive with the dive shop here in Musket Cove. It was convenient to be picked up at the mooring ball but then I wondered where all the other divers were. Turns out we needed to pick them up too; at other resorts. This boat ride gave us a close-up view of 3 other resorts and that is how we discovered that there are lots of these remote vacation resorts in these islands off the west coast of Fiji. There was even a tiny little tall island for its size that had a very nice, big custom home built on top of it.
We back rolled off this boat the same as in Savusavu but this one had a ladder on the back making for easier boat entries. The water of course was very warm and the visibility in the 40-50’range. We did not see any large fish and mostly saw small schooling fish and plentiful coral. A few large clams and a turtle off the coast of Fiji is nothing to complain about.
