Our Beloved Seas trips June 2024

June 11-22 and June 22-July 2, 2024
We have been lucky enough to have two brilliant trips with groups from Our Beloved Seas onboard, led by Wendy Brown and Dr. Richard Smith. Everyone was super interested in the presentations given by Dr. Richard Smith on some of the rarer or often overlooked or endemic fish found in the Solomon Islands. It was exciting that we not only learned about these unique species but also managed to find many of them during our dives. Some of the guest were also conducting REEF fish surveys and it was interesting for them to share with us the number of species found on certain dive sites.
Instead of listing all the amazing marine life we encountered, I’d like to share a collection of photos from the trip taken by Friso Roozen. Thanks Friso for allowing us to use the photos.
Thank you to everyone on these two trips for the great company and fun dives. We hope to see you back in the Solomons again soon. A big thank you to all the Bilikiki crew and managers also for their hard work.
