Soft Coral Capital of the World

Come to Fiji with us and stay at the award winning 4-star Fiji dive resort Volivoli Beach Resort. The trip includes a 7-night stay, 6 days of boat diving (up to 12 dives) plus unlimited shore diving, 3 meals daily, beach BBQ, traditional Meke performance, and more.

Arriving at the resort mid-day, you can go shore diving as soon as you are settled in, if you are up to it!

We will be staying right off the Bligh Waters, also known as The Vatu-I-Ra Passage, a marine protected area famous for its abundance and diversity of marine lif and the best soft coral diving in Fiji. These sites are a mixture of walls, bommies and drift dives, all of which are teaming with life and colour. Sites like Black magic mountain, Mellow yellow and Instant replay will soon be etched in your memory forever! You’re going to see the healthiest soft coral in the world, more colours than you can imagine, and some extremely rare macro creatures—like the ornate ghost pipefish, orangutan crabs, frogfish, nudibranch, seahorses, schools of barracuda, trevally, giant groupers, and in all likelihood, turtles, moray eels, grey, blacak and white tip reef sharks, and the occasional tiger shark.

When you’re done diving for the day there is plenty to do, including snorkeling, kayaking, beach volleyball, and many more activities for hire.

Enjoy Fiji’s best snorkeling directly off the beach! Boasting some of the best snorkeling in Fiji, the waters around Volivoli Beach are full of colorful soft coral and marine life. What’s more, you can snorkel at any time of day, as the deep water bay means low tide isn’t a problem.

Or you could head out on one the included sea kayaks. The water here is so clear you’ll be able to watch brightly colored tropical fish and bright blue starfish as you paddle around. It’s up to you how much you want to do in your kayak. You could pack a picnic and spend the whole day afloat. Or you might prefer a more adventurous kayak around the bay to explore the hidden coves and mangrove forests. Or you can simply float around listening to the gentle splash of your paddles.

Volivoli Beach Resort is perched on the edge of the stunning Bligh Waters, with over 80 dive sites to scuba dive it is the perfect spot for any avid diver. With a purpose build dive and fishing boat fleet and onsite dive facility, Volivoli Beach Resort is Fiji’s premiere dive resort for scuba diving in Fiji. Volivoli has 3 bars and 2 onsite restaurants. Enjoy traditional Fijian culture with the local staff and villages on Meke night, complete with a Kava ceremony.

Dive Accident Insurance

We believe having at least the basic in dive accident insurance is the wise thing to do and require travelers on this trip to have some form of coverage. Dive accident insurance is relatively inexpensive, we recommend purchasing dive accident insurance from Divers Alert Network (DAN), but there are others available and any are acceptable.

Travel Insurance

Fiji no longer requires visitors to show proof of travel insurance. However, we always recommend having travel insurance to cover you in the case of travel inturruptions, or even scenarios like canceling after refunds are closed. If you are interested in travel insurance for this trip we recommend DAN Travel Insurance.

COVID Advisory

We are excited that Fiji now has zero restrictions for travel! Effective Feb 14, 2023 Fiji no longer requires travelers to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination to enter the country! More information can be found on the Fiji travel page.
