The expedition camps here for three weeks to discover monkeys, owls and land crabs that live in the forest, reef herons that forage along the shore and a colourful kaleidoscope of fish that live in the coral reefs.
Butterflies, puffers and parrots are all fish, each species with its particular niche in the economy of the reef. But why do these fish display such a variety of colour, pattern and shape?

The film version of the famous rock opera by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber
Starring Ted Neeley, Carl Anderson, Yvonne Elliman

This unusual picture of the last seven days of Christ's life is based on the famous rock opera now in its seventh year on a London stage. A group of young people arrive in the Holy Land by bus to act out events leading to the Crucifixion in a blend of biblical and contemporary themes. To Judas Iscariot, Christ is a badly managed Superstar bound to lose the support of a fickle public; to the priests he is a real menace and to Mary Magdalene, he brings a love she has never known before. Photographed against some of the most dramatic scenery in Israel, the film is performed without dialogue and includes the hit songs 'I Don't Know How to Love Him', 'Superstar' and 'King Herod's Song'.

Weather

You don't have to go to the Holy Land to celebrate the theme of Easter: the story of death and rebirth is echoed in the cycle of the English seasons as spring begins, and in personal stories of hope triumphing over suffering.
For some, Easter means children acting out the resurrection of Jesus or making Easter gardens; for many others it means Dame Isobel Baillie singing ' I Know that my Redeemer Liveth '.
