You dont have to look very far to find coconuts. They are scattered all over the sand.
Rafi decided to take this coconut and try to open it himself... A little secret - he didnt get very far.. LOL we ended up asking one of the locals to cut it open. Taste's GREAT!! Leave a Comment Address: Plantation Island

Sailing lessons were avaiable, and David really wanted to have a go. I did a week's course in the Isle of Wight, learning to sail, many, many years ago, in fact I even qualified with a Royal Yachting Association's Certificate.
However, this was David's big moment. We paid extra for me to be a passenger while he learned. We expected the instructor to stay on the boat with us, but after a few simple directions, he let us out on our own.
We sailed off towards Ragent's own private island, did a few nice little turn, and then David delivered his new-found speciality: underwater sailing! Somehow he manage to steer the catemaran downwards, water started to cover the top, we were getting deeper and deeper into the sea.
Of course, the bouyancy of the boat means that it did "pop" up to the surface again after a little while, but it was an interesting experience! Leave a Comment

Going for a little walk at night, we wandered down to the deserted beach, which wasn't so deserted after all. Looking closely we could see hundreds of little crabs. They were quite amazing to watch, sliding sideways along the sand. Leave a Comment

Having been on the Shotover Jet in Queensland, New Zealand, we jumped at the chance of signing up for the jet boat ride here in Fiji.
It is only just down the lane from the hotel and they pick you up from your accommodation. The boats are the same style as they use in New Zealand, the main difference between the two trips was 20 degrees! (temperature that is).I sat in the front this time. Same speed, same turns, warmer water. I got soaked! Not just sprayed, the water actuallt poured over me, like somebody had emptied a bucket!
Then we broke down! We seem to have a knack for breaking down in boats - I hope that doesn't go for the cruise too. The driver tried to repair it and sent off for another driver, who also couldn't manage to repair it.
Eventually we had to clamber out and scramble up the bank to wait for the van to come across the golf course to pick us up. Back at base we were offered a refund or another trip. We are goign again of course! Leave a Comment

The beach here is really very nice indeed. Very soft sand, which is raked every day to ensure that it is clean. Plenty of sunbeds available should you wish to linger and soak up thos ewonderful sun rays. The beach is fairly quiet most of the time, we didn't have any annoying beach sales men pestering us either. Leave a Comment
