Up to Dive Master
Our boat,‘Sokia’ (‘Angel Fish’ in Fijian), is a purpose built, 30ft aluminium monohull dive boat, powered by twin 200hp outboard engines, making her one of the fastest and most stable dive platforms in Fiji. The ‘Sokia’ is fully surveyed, safety equipped and comfortably accommodates 14 divers speeding them to a host of spectacular dive sites.
We have a wide variety of dive sites available, featuring rolling hills of hard corals and swimthroughs on the outside of the barrier reef with the opportunity to see pelagics, rays and turtles with visibility in excess of 30m/100ft. The lagoon offers various atolls and coral heads, providing excellent wall diving and the chance to experience a colourful array of coral and reef fish as well as cruising sharks and blue water species. The soft corals, large moray eels and batfish are more than eager to pose for the camera at “Gotham City” and the “Supermarket” is home to Fiji’s famous shark encounter.
