SNORKELLING

Immerse yourself in extraordinary marine wonders at some of the Top 10 soft coral dive sites in the world

Embark on snorkeling adventures just off the pier or a short boat ride away. Fiji, renowned as the soft coral capital of the world, unfolds its underwater marvels within the resort’s protected marine area known as a “Tabu”. Immerse yourself in a kaleidoscope of marine life of endless drop-offs, vivid soft corals, and coral gardens supporting an abundance of fascinating sea creatures.

LIGHTHOUSE

A glimpse of some of the finest coral gardens

Serving as the gateway to the outer barrier reef, this location boasts unique marine life, including our renowned magic coral that changes colour when disturbed, as well as anemones and Anemone Fish, commonly known as Nemo’s Cousin. The corals exhibit astonishing beauty, and the reef formations are distinctly unique as they form a protective barrier to the inner shallow reef.

GOLDEN NUGGET

Colourful reef fishes in just 2 metres of depth

Just 5 minutes away, this protected area is typically calm, offering an ideal setting to appreciate clams and a wide variety of marine creatures, making it a favourite for both novice and experienced snorkellers. Its proximity and generally calm conditions on most days enhance the appeal of this spot.

SHARK ALLEY

An intriguing location on the main barrier

Access to this spot can be weather-dependent, particularly influenced by strong winds and waves. On a favourable day, the master of disguise, the octopus, can be easily spotted. The reef top is adorned with hard corals such as plate corals, staghorns, boulders, and branching corals. As you are close to the deepest part of Fiji, the Koro Sea, you may have the opportunity to witness large marine life cruising by. The visibility is consistently remarkable owing to the reef’s topography.
