The Shark Reef Marine Reserve in Fiji - Photo Book
This book is the culmination of more than five years of work coming together: hundreds of dives, hours of research, conducting interviews and sorting through thousands of images. The final result is a beautiful coffee table book with more than 100 carefully chosen images and a lot of easy-to-understand information and facts. The story of Fiji’s Shark Reef Marine Reserve is unique, and I am proud and happy to be spreading this great initiative into livingrooms all around the world. If you like diving and sharks, this book is for you!
Book Blurb:
Beqa Adventure Divers (BAD) in Fiji is by no means a conventional dive center. Besides providing incredible shark experiences with up to eight shark species, continuous advocacy and a self-sustaining ecotourism operation, their efforts led to the creation of Fiji‘s first National Marine Park, the Shark Reef Marine Reserve, in 2014.
Working closely with the local communities, the BAD team has created a world-renowned shark dive that offers thrilling yet safe shark encounters while facilitating local shark conservation and educating thousands of divers every year.
Moreover, BAD‘s scientific research support has led to more than a dozen publications shedding more light on shark tourism and revealing new insights into the lives of Fiji‘s sharks.
This book tells the story of the Shark Reef Marine Reserve and its day-to-day operations, dives into the science behind shark feeding, interviews some of the leading shark scientists and, above all, showcases photographs of these beautiful animals taken in the reserve over a period of six years.
