Watch anything you leave on shore, while you're swimming/snorkelling or whatever. The local children would REALLY like them! They also come up to you and ask to 'borrow' your snorkelling masks, but you are unlikely to see that mask again, if you 'lend' it to them. They can swim much farther and faster, than you ever could. Don't let the cute, pouty face and little squeaky voice, fool you.
Unique Suggestions: If you wander off on your own, like I did, at least have a waterproof 'beach safe' on a lanyard, for your money & anything else of value and take it in the water with you.
Fun Alternatives: Let the kids keep your snorkel mask, if you don't need it anymore:)

Lifou was one of the islands that I got to on a cruise onboard of the Dawn Princess. You will see millions of butterflies and it was very warm there with a gentle breeze most of the time.
