Chen Yuan and the others were eating when Zhou Sheng and Yang Xun slowly came over.
"Can you give us something to eat?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"No, order it yourself." Chen Xin said: "Why are you just getting up now? My brother just said you are very lazy."
"He's very lazy." Zhou Sheng rolled his eyes at Chen Yuan, as if he was resentful.
"You guys hurry up, after dinner, we will go out to play." Chen Yuan said.
"Go diving?" Zhou Sheng asked.
Chen Yuan nodded: "Drive the boat out for a spin, and then find a good place to dive."
Zhou Sheng and Yang Xun went to order food and ordered fried rice.
There are not many tourists on the island, but there are still some. Mainly Chinese...
Xu Xing is playing Douyin and no longer cooperates with travel agencies. Nowadays, tourists have watched Douyin and come here because of its reputation.
He Huan, Zhou Yan, and Jiang Bo all took diving cylinders...
"Do you want a scuba tank?"
"If you have a gas cylinder, you can go to deeper seas," Chen Yuandao said.
"The stitches on his forehead haven't been removed yet, so he definitely won't go." Yang Xun said, "I'll go over and call him and ask."
"Hey, can this boat of yours reach fifty knots?" Xu Xing said.
"How much does it cost?"
Xu Xing nodded: "The small clams here are edible, and the large clams are also protected animals. There are two types of small clams and large clams...
Xu Xing didn’t know the scientific names of those clams either.
Large clam, outer ligament is brown, long and narrow...
The man's name is Jiang Bo and the woman's name is Huang Yu. They are newlyweds and came here to spend their honeymoon.
They have been here for a few days, and Yan Xiaoxi got to know them.
Xu Xing gave a thumbs up.
"Yes." The woman nodded.
"Okay." Chen Yuandao said, "Are there any inedible clams here?"
Waiting for Yan Xiaoxi and others to fasten their seat belts, Chen Yuan turned on the third engine and pushed the throttle lever. The engine roared with excitement and the speed became faster and faster.
"They say they are protected animals, but they are still sold locally. It's just that the number now is too small..."
What Xu Xing is interested in is Unealevu Island, which is still a pristine island. It is too far away from Lelevia, about 300 kilometers... He recommended Wainunu Bay on Vanua Levu Island, where there are
The large barrier reef is estimated to be dozens of square kilometers. It is suitable for free diving, deep diving and other activities.
Chen Yuan guessed that the giant clam should be Tridacna kushii. The shell of this kind of clam is said to be able to grow up to 2 meters in length.
After dinner, everyone got to know each other.
"The fastest, fifty-four, fifty-five." Chen Yuan said, "This boat has three engines."
Atolls, Xisha, Dongsha, Nansha... there are many atolls.
"OK."
What's more important is that there is no large-scale commercial development on the Wye Barrier Reef. When diving on the Wye Barrier Reef, you can also catch and pick up conches.
There was a young man and woman at the next table. The woman turned her head and looked over: "Xiao Xi, where are you going diving?"
"Okay, then we'll send it." Chen Yuan handed the cylinder to Yang Xun and looked at Uncle Xiao Xi: "Uncle, where are the more beautiful coral reefs around here?"
Set off, stay away from the island, and come to the deep water area, you can see a large area of blue. This kind of blue is like blue mixed with milk, light blue, very beautiful.
The two types of clams are easy to distinguish. The long clam has photoreceptor cells on its mantle, with bright and changeable colors and a nearly oblong shell.
Zhou Sheng said to Chen Xin: "We have two sets of diving equipment on the boat, you can just use mine."
There are diving equipment rentals in the hotel lobby, but generally speaking, you need to be accompanied by a professional when you go diving.
LeLevia Island is also a famous diving spot. But Xu Xing has lived here for a long time and doesn’t feel much about it anymore.
There are many waters available for diving in Fiji. Popular diving spots are usually divided into five major areas: Mamanousa and Yasawa Islands, Northeastern Islands (including Vanua Levu and Taveuni Island), and Benga Lagoon (Pacific Ocean). Port), Kandavu and the Central Islands.
"What about you?"
There is a large barrier reef here on LeLevia Island, and in many places, the water will be exposed when the tide is low.
"You rent a set of diving equipment and we'll go out on our own boat." Yan Xiaoxi looked at Chen Yuan.
Not to mention fringing reefs, they are very common.
"Will He Fei and the others go?" Chen Yuan looked at Yang Xun.
Yan Xiaoxi said: "I don't know, let's go out on the boat and see if you want to go out and play together."
"Should we bring gas bottles?" He Huan asked.
The small clam should be the long clam. Chen Yuan and others had eaten this kind of clam in Kiribati. It is a common species and can be cultured.
Xu Xing rolled his eyes at Yan Xiaoxi and said, "Whatever equipment you need, just get it yourself."
There are three types of coral reefs in modern oceans: fringing reefs, barrier reefs, and atolls.
In Fiji, there are many barrier reefs and atolls. Every place is beautiful...
Chen Yuan picked up Yan Xiaoxi's bag and walked towards the dock.
"The barrier reef and coral reefs on our small island are very beautiful. But if you want to find a more beautiful place, you have to go to a more remote atoll island." Xu Xing said.
"Uncle, let's rent some sets of diving equipment." Yan Xiaoxi shouted, "Let's go out and play together."
"Yes. I can't hold my breath underwater..." Yang Xun trotted over to find He Fei.
"Just go to Wai Barrier Reef, where there are many edible clams." Xu Xing saw the chart and designated the location for Chen Yuan, saying.
As the fishing boat ran, you could hear the sound of prosperity. Soon, Motuli Island was behind you...and then there was Ovalao Island...
Chen Yuan smiled and looked at the people next to him: "Everyone, sit down and fasten your seat belts. I'm going to speed up."
Soon, the fishing boat left the barrier reef. On the left was the barrier reef of Motuli Island. The speed of the boat reached 50 knots... which is equivalent to a speed of 92 kilometers per hour.
Chen Yuan got a set for Yang Xun, and Yang Xun trotted over: "He Fei and the others won't go."
"I have time," the man said with a smile.
"Hurry up, we'll wait at the pier."
"I don't use a gas cylinder." Zhou Sheng said, "Bring a pair of flippers."
The speed of the ship increased, the bow of the ship rose slightly, and it seemed as if it was taking off on the calm sea.
Chen Yuan nodded: "Let's go out and we won't come back until evening. If we have time, let's go out and play together."
"Do you have a diving certificate?"
There are many small clams. However, it is said that there are very few large clams, and they are also rare in Fiji.
Barrier Reef, the most famous one is the Great Barrier Reef.
There is also a long barrier reef offshore of Ovarau Island, and fishing boats are traveling at high speed just outside the barrier reef.
It’s a hundred kilometers to the destination, and the highway switches to high-speed cruising, which takes just over an hour in total.
Barrier reefs are also called "offshore reefs". They are large reefs extending in strips in shallow seas far away from the shore. There is a wide shallow sea lagoon between the reef and the coast. The depth of the lagoon is generally not more than 100 meters. , with a width of tens of kilometers.
Chen Yuan slowed down and approached. Under Xu Xing's guidance, Chen Yuan found a 'water channel', a deep water area, and drove the boat into the barrier reef...
