This Easter I was lucky enough to lead a group to Port Vila on a dive holiday. Vanuatu really is just on our doorstep here in Brisbane, it’s only a two and a half hour flight. However, once you arrive you feel like you’re in another world.The diving around Port Villa is incredibly relaxed, with average vis of about 20-30 metres, water temperature a constant 26 degrees and wave heights measured in the millimetres. We dove on reefs, wrecks and even explored lava tubes, basking in water heated by volcanic vents just below to sea-bed.
Of course, it wouldn’t be Easter without a visit from the Easter Bunny and an egg hunt, which we held on the wreck of the Bonza, choc-o-holics trying to eat chocolate on a safety stop was a sight to see. We also held the inaugural International Bunny Ball convention, ratifying the rules and holding the first international series of the game. Congratulations to Richard Erskine for taking home the championship, a victory assisted by his vigorous rescue training with Miguel. Hopefully, Richard will be back to defend his title when we return to Hideaway in July 2013. Thank you all for an amazing dive adventures.
