My sister/BIL we sometimes dive with got a wild hair about going to Fiji. This would be the first Pacific trip (other than CA) for any of us. After a little looking, it seems the warmest water is March & April, so we would be moving very quickly for us, almost panic mode, which I don't like. They are looking at Beqa Lagoon Resort based on a strong recommendation from their LDS. All good so far, and we're strongly tempted to go for it.
Then I see news about Cyclone Evan. Red Flags!
I'm less concerned about structure and infrastructure damage. Sounds like it's controlled, and if they'll book a package, we can probably deal with minor inconvenience.
But what I want to know is: How's the diving? Is the reef impacted? Are we spending (for us) big $$ on our first Pacific dive trip to blow bubbles on a silted-up reef?
Any information about current conditions would be welcome.
