The impressive coral formations and wide variety of brightly colored sea creatures had us captivated with our snorkel gear on for several hours each day and sometimes twice a day.

We were going through sun block so fast that we started just wearing t-shirts while snorkeling to help protect our backs from the heat and UV rays of the sun.

For our next trip back to Fiji, we plan on buying some of those snorkel/scuba dive/skin/rash guard shirts, which make it easier to swim through the water and better protect against coral scrapes .
