You feel weightless as the ocean carries through underwater mazes, which hide walls lined with coral and florescent fish in the waving tendrils of anemones. Hammerhead sharks linger around the murky depths, away from the reef, and majestic tiger sharks inch closer giving you an adrenaline rush. Your custom-tailored best scuba diving vacation in Fiji shows you the Rainbow Reef, coral, and much more. Wind through swaying trees on land and sea, witnessing waterfalls and lionfish, Tagimaucia flowers...
Customizable Itinerary
Day 1
Above the Water
As the flight descends into Viti Levu you look out the window and see the shimmering turquoise water encircling Fiji’s largest island. Vibrant reefs extend from a limestone framework barely visible beneath the water. The Pacific disappears behind rolling verdant hills that climb into rainforest clad mountains. Your private transfer awaits your arrival at the airport ready to escort you to Pacific Harbour. Tropical lushness encompasses the island. The scents of fresh grass and fertile soil shift into the sweet aroma of a sea breeze when you reach the Coral Coast. Mami Guns, a World War II bunker built by a New Zealand company continues to watch over Nadi Bay. The six-inch guns maintain their power overlooking the sensational panorama across the southwest coast, where the water reaches small stretches of gold sand beaches. You reach your resort accommodation in Pacific Harbour, dip your toes into the warm tropical South Pacific, and let the luxuries of your arrival overtake you.
