FIJI ISLANDS DIVE SITES

BEQA ISLAND

CAESAR'S ROCKS
18-54 ft
A collection of bommies blanketed in pink, red, and orange soft corals is the focus here. The bommies provide interesting swim-throughs, channels, and caverns. Giant gorgonians conceal hawkfish and trumpetfish, while nudibranchs and blennies prefer the many cracks and crevices. Schools of tuna are also frequently sighted here.

SEVEN SISTERS
15-57 ft
Seven pinnacles provide the namesake for this section of the reef, which is covered with fans, soft corals, and crinoids in a variety of vivid colors. A discerning eye will spot octopus, flatworms, shrimps, morays, anemones, basslets, and anthias. White-tip and black-tip sharks are frequent visitors.

CARPET COVE
18-90 ft
A carpet of anemones in the shallows precedes a reef that houses scorpion leaffish of varying colors. A wall is covered in hard corals, soft corals, and fans and provides a colorful backdrop for blue ribbon eels, anemonefish, dartfish, pygmy wrasses, and batfish. The nearby wreck of an 80ft Chinese trawler is encrusted with sponges and soft corals and attracts many lionfish.

FANTASEA
15-75 ft
A coral ridge teeming with crinoids, whip corals, bubble corals, and giant gorgonian fans. Look for shrimps, orangutan crabs, lionfish, snapper, nudibranchs, flatworms, damselfish, tang, dartfish, anthias, fairy basslets, anemones and clownfish. Fields of garden eels can be found along the sandy floor nearby.

E.T.
45-63 ft
This dive site features an enormous tunnel that houses two separate chambers. The walls of the tunnel are decorated with soft corals, sea fans, and cup corals. Use a torch to search for nurse sharks, nudibranchs, sea slugs, lionfish, morays, crabs, and a variety of shrimp. A mysterious maze of smaller tunnels, at times stacked or parallel, truly lends an "out of this world" feel to the experience.
