Barefoot Kuata was really nice, too! They even had a pool (actually it was three small ones) next to the beach. It was really cool to use a hammock between two palm trees and swinging over some rocks with the beach and sea just below you.
In the evening I went for a night snorkel with a guide from the dive team. We had a torch so you could actually see something under water in the dark. There were not that many fish as during daytime, as many of them sleep between the corals (you could actually see them there). We saw two really big fish – one was grey the other really colorful and with thorns all over his back. We also saw some really big shells, you could see one of them breathing. Another cool thing was a spider crab – it really looked like a hybrid of a spider and a crab. I reef shark also passed by to say hello.
Next day I went for a walk to the summit of the island, about an hour return walk. It had an steep ascent and it was already pretty hot in the late morning. The views from the top were really great.
On the Yasawa Flyer which took me back to Nadi, I met one of the british girls from the first island again. And also the nice German couple Manuel and Justine from Germany which I was hanging out a lot on Barefoot Manta.
Lucky for the German couple they actually went snorkeling with the Mantas on the day I had already left to Barefoot Kuata. They said it was really cool, they also showed me an awesome video they had taken of it. But well, you can’t have it all. 😉
