Latest News & Updates

Pristine white sands, sparkling turquoise waters, and a frozen, fruity, rum-infused cocktail in hand---sound too good to be true? Your heavenly getaway awaits you in Fiji. Not only is this South Pacific archipelago a tropical paradise, it’s one of the top destinations for scuba diving enthusiasts. Whether you are a seasoned scuba diver looking for your next big adventure or a newbie eager to try scuba diving for the first time, Fiji has something for everyone. In this post, we’ll take a look at some of the best resorts for an unforgettable scuba diving adventure in Fiji.

Matangi Private Island Resort

For many people, a trip to Fiji is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, so it’s worth making it count. Situated on a 240-acre horseshoe-shaped island, Matangi Private Island Resort is an adults-only stay surrounded by a tropical rainforest, volcanic rocks, and gorgeous beaches. Matangi Island is conveniently located near some of the most exhilarating diving sites in the world, including Noel’s Wall and the Great White Wall. Beginner divers should know this resort is PADI-certified, so a diving certificate will be needed before embarking on any diving trips. Each day after your diving excursion, you’ll find many more activities await you. Book a tour of the local villages to immerse yourself in Fijian culture, hike through the rainforest to the breathtaking waterfall on Taveuni Island, and spend the day on the water in other ways, like paddleboarding, fishing, and kayaking. A luxury scuba diving vacation wouldn’t be complete without mouth-watering cuisine to fuel you for each diving adventure. Wake up to traditional tapioca and breadfruit, snack on delicious coconuts, and dine on gourmet Fijian dishes including fresh seafood and Fijian spinach. After a day filled with adventure and a glorious sunset, retreat to your very own luxury treehouse for the best sleep of your life.

Beqa Lagoon Resort

The gorgeous, secluded Beqa Lagoon Resort, located on Beqa Island, is a short boat trip away from the mainland. Once you step foot on the island, local villagers will warmly greet you with a traditional welcome song. Along with a smorgasbord of dryland and water activities, Beqa Island is known for its exquisite diving adventures; so much so that it was given the 2020 Readers’ Choice Award in Scuba Diving Magazine! Surrounded by over 190 miles of coral reef, there is much to explore in these exquisite, blue waters. Scuba divers who love a good dose of adrenaline will be thrilled to explore underwater wreckages as well as swim among multiple shark species. Enjoy the majestic beauty of the Beqa Lagoon and keep your eyes peeled for exotic sea creatures including leaf scorpionfish, camouflaged day octopus, and blue ribbon eel. After an adventurous day of scuba diving, enjoy a quick afternoon snooze in your luxury, air-conditioned wood-and-straw hut before taking a refreshing dip in one of the private plunge pools.

Volivoli Resort

Situated on Fiji’s largest island, Viti Levu, Volivoli Resort is just 2-hour drive away from Nadi International Airport. Along the way, you’ll be fully immersed in the breathtaking scenery of lush, green, tropical jungles and rural villages, providing you with an authentic Fijian experience. Once you arrive at the resort, check into your luxurious, modern, and (most importantly) air-conditioned oceanfront villa before treating yourself to a fresh, farm-to-table dinner and a drink at any one of the five restaurants or bars on the resort. After a restful night’s sleep, you’ll be ready for your first diving adventure of the trip. Of all the resorts we’ve mentioned, Volivoli is arguably the best option for beginner divers. There are various diving courses to choose from, all led by SSI and PADI-certified instructors. Learn how to night dive, drive through wreckages, and navigate underneath the surface of the deep blue sea. Once you’re ready to dive, take a trip to the Papuan Explorer dive site, the largest wreck site in Fiji and the ultimate spot for wreck diving enthusiasts. When you want to switch things up, spend time on the water in other ways, whether paddleboarding, kayaking, or snorkeling with aquatic life. The cherry on top is that all of these activities are all complimentary!
