Anyone ever use the Naia? I looked it up on line yesterday and it looks
interesting.

I have used Aggressor on other trips but not in Fiji, anyone have any
feedback on them as well?
I am thinking of going to Fiji in the April/May 2005 timeframe is this an ok
time to be there?

I have heard the Naia is one of the best live aboards in the world

Why not postpone until June, July or August? You won't get hot suiting up in
the balmy weather that prevails in Fiji during the Austral winter. Fiji lacks
the wretched humidity of the Society Island (Tahiti).

We went to Fiji (first of three) April 2000. BEST diving we have ever had!!
Stayed at Garden Island on Taveuni. Hotel is ok, diving is THE BEST.

The shop I teach with has used the Naia several times and are thinking
of doing it again. They absolutely love it. I don't think you can go
wrong there.

Only if you don"t mind the strong current,
Could I recommend Taveuni. Stayed also at Garden Island Resort.

I've done Garden Island and Nai'a [3 times]. Both are excellent in their
own right, just different.
Suggest your decision should be based on your experience and interest.
I you liked the Aggressor trips, you'll love the Nai'a.
If you want fewer dives, more relaxation and a beautiful typical island
to explore [in addition to diving], you'll love Garden Island.
