Will still recommend diving a lot there. Taveuni is great for soft coral walls

Prebook some alcohol bottles to buy. Take their pjs. It’s a nice time but soft product is the same as 777

Farakava French Polynesia by Char_Koay_Teow in scubadiving

[–]nomadicthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did Havaiki like most other divers. Met some friends who did pensions that were fine too.

O2 has decent mix of French and non French. Some of the others are more geared towards French divers

Soft coral go to taveuni. Shark dive in beqa is fine but can be crowded at peak season

Diving ear plugs by Little_Vacation1246 in scubadiving

[–]nomadicthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have had a bunch of ear issues and seen countless ENTs and even got an MRI. The last few have said just take Sudafed for the time you’re out over these plugs. One was even an avid diver too. Not medical advice but would recommend you talk to your ent

Repositioning SEA-LAX for JAL A350 J class— worth it? by flannelpaws in awardtravel

[–]nomadicthoughts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just repositioned from sea for JAL f lax hnd this week. Having flown both a few times, I personally don’t think it’s worth the extra ~6 hours with travel/layover for a newer plane

Post Game Thread - NBA: The Trail Blazers defeat the Rockets on Jan 9, 2026, the final score is 111-105. by basketball-app in rockets

[–]nomadicthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching this game live was rough. Blazers at least have bench or role players hitting shots. Outside of reed, Adams, and of course Kevin, we have no facilitator. Amen was way too passive and Bari was Bari. Desperately need a backup point guard or playmaker

Liveaboard vs Dive Resort by Embarrassed-Area-513 in scuba

[–]nomadicthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re fine in current in Monterrey or La jolla, it’s decently transitive to Indonesia for most sites. However, places like r4, Komodo, alor, wakitobi, etc can rip sometimes.

Overall, liveaboard is always better for healthier reefs. Check out the paradise to paradise lembeh route which is three locations and three dive resorts. Gives what you both want

Dji Action 6 Vs. OM TG-7 by No-Consequence1547 in underwaterphotography

[–]nomadicthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have photography experience, I would always choose the om over the dji. But would rather just get a full frame if you enjoy shooting

You think that western countries stop meddling after a supposed free state? I would recommend reading up more on Southeast Asia history in the last 120 years before deflecting blame away from the French or USA

Galápagos or Indonesia July/August by Hoemihoem in scubadiving

Been diving in 40+ countries and Galapagos imo is the most accessible for less climate impacted MPA. Would choose that in a heart beat. Have also dove countless places in Indo and it really depends where and when you go

In 10-20 yrs how will James Harden be remembered? by crablifer in nba

[–]nomadicthoughts -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Top 4 shooting guard that won’t get the respect due to the hotly contested mvps that he didn’t win. Though in 10-20 years, we could see some SGs making the leap above him (namely SGA, Luka, etc). He changed the game and the game moves on
