Renowned as the soft coral capital of the world, Fiji is also blessed with incredible marine life encounters, with some of the finest dive sites accessible only from a liveaboard.
The focal point of any Fiji liveaboard is the rich body of water that separates the two main islands, known as Bligh Water. Here, divers can experience thrilling drift diving along walls, pinnacles that act as a magnet for sharks and manta rays, plus wonderful coral gardens.
Divers will also get to experience the wonderful dive sites around the islands of Namena, Wakaya, and Gau for more superb encounters with larger marine life and reefs teeming with fish. Longer itineraries also head farther east to take in the diving around Taveuni or the Koro Sea, renowned for soft coral gardens and possible encounters with hammerhead sharks.
The itinerary below is based on a seven night trip on board the Fiji Nai'a. Similar itineraries are offered on other liveaboards.
Board your liveaboard, head for the Bligh Water and possibly beyond.
