Prior to his appointment in Fiji Peter was the GM of Bali Hai Cruises in Bali for 13 years operating reef, island and sailing trips. He has been CEO of our much larger Fiji operation South Sea Cruises/Awesome Adventures for four years so he will bring a wealth of experience with him.

He will be much missed by the company, staff and the local industry.
