Nukubalavu Adventure Resort and Dive Centre

Tell me that the honeyeater, the fantail and the velvet fruit dove don't evoke some kind of romantic mystical images straight out of a Gaugin painting. They do? Okay, now slip yourself into that picture, wandering the sands of a remote beach, the slither of palm fronds as the musical backdrop for every evening. In the distance, the raucous call of the native musk parrot echoes in the forest before you see its identifying flash of scarlet and green through the leaves.

Diving Scotland???

Yes, Scotland. This may not seem like an exotic destination, but wait until you hear about the diving.

The waters of Scapa Flow, Scotland are home to eight different wrecks. From dreadnought class battleships to light cruisers, Scapa Flow features German wrecks and many more. Once more, there are new sites opening all the time.

Make Your Mask Trouble-Free

Perhaps the oldest piece of true diving equipment is the mask. Like other scuba gear, its simple purpose is to allow our bodies to function in a liquid world. The mask's contribution to this adaptation is to provide an air space in front of our eyes so they can focus. Your nose must also be available to equalize the mask's volume and your head's natural air spaces. Simple functions to be sure, but finding the right mask for you can be a complex task centered around one overriding concern: proper fit. Here's a remarkable but true statement: a poorly fitting mask is the most common and significant problem of dive gear selection.

How to Apply Sunscreen

There are a variety of different swimsuits you can have in your collection from sheer micro bikinis, sheer bikinis, sheer thong bikinis (transparent when wet), thong bikinis, g-string bikinis, one piece swimsuits, mastectomy bathing suits, bikinis, tankinis and designer swimsuits. The collection of swimsuits you have will probably serve different purposes with the sheer bikinis being used for minimal tan lines and the one piece swimsuit for snorkelling fun. Whichever swimsuits you have in your closet you will be wise to own and know how to properly apply sunscreen.
