after 2,5 amazing weeks in New Zealand, we made our way from Auckland to Fiji and our destination was the Octopus Resort on Waya Island (part of the Yasawa group). We spent 10 days on the island and we had an absolutely fantastic time with beautiful weather, white sandy beach, turquoise water, lots of snorkelling at the reef, friendly fijian people, good food, nice beds, sunset cocktails, lots of fun....
I just loved the time on Fiji, I was so relaxed and after the cold weather in New Zealand, it was the perfect place to be.
Here are some pictures:
