If you haven’t dived in a while, or still feel a little inexperienced you may want to consider doing a beach dive and/or, having an SSI Dive Instructor with you to ease yourself back in. We can update your skills, and do a short refresher to bring you back up to date. Diving in Fiji is the perfect place to get you back into practice.

Encounter Many Fish Species
As many as 7,000 different fish species live on coral reefs or nearby inshore habitats, with perhaps 300 different types inhabiting a small plot of reef. Fiji also has a couple of residents unique only to Fiji, including the bicolour rabbitfish and black rabbitfish. They have gentle eyes but also have a sharp dorsal spine it can raise if threatened. The rabbitfish has a yellow tail and is rarely seen out of a pair.
The Yasawa Islands are less crowded and have fewer dive boats than other regions of Fiji. This chain of ancient volcanic islands offers excellent corals, pristine reefs and good visibility, not to mention some superb topside backdrops.
