This was my first trip to Fiji. I stayed at Qamea beach resort. It does have a dive shop that offers instruction and diving. This resort doesn't get a large amount of divers at a time. I found this great because most of the week it was just myself and the dive master. The Qamea House reef is the reef right off the shore at Qamea Beach club. The reef begins in very shallow water and will reach depths of 130+ feet. I found the condition of the reef excellent. Most of the coral formation on this reef are stoney types of coral. The fish life is great with all the normal reef fish, large populations of clown fish, several lion fish, a turtle a times and it is not uncommon to see some small white tip reef sharks. The visibility on this reef was very good. depending on what the tide was doing the vis could drop down a bit. You could tell what this vis was going to be from the shore, the shallow part of the reef starts about ten feet off the beach in front of the dive shop, you could stand at the shop and look at the reef if was clear you knew it would only be better at the deeper parts. I only got to dive this reef once but I did snorkel on it everyday while I was there. I am a SCUBA junkie but I found this reef to be just as wonderful while snorkeling do to so much of it being in shallow water.

The legendary ‘Gunbarrel’ – Not for first timers!
An adrenalin dive for the first part of the dive as you fly through an underwater canyon, herding the schools of snapper and surgeon fish through the narrow underwater gorge.
Graceful grey reef and white tip sharks glide up and down the walls through all the swirling fish. The canyon then opens up to an underwater beach where the current suddenly stops and we pause and wait for the sharks to return single file past us back into the channel. Then a short swim through takes us out into the clear blue of the Pacific.
The second half of the dive is very different – a leisurely meander over hard coral gardens and though a long, sunlit tunnel with a wavy sandy floor, before we drift up through the sun pierced blue to surface by the boat.

Fiji is known for it's huge sea fans and soft corals, along with mantas, hammerheads and big pelagics. The diving is for all levels with shallow and deep reefs, ledges, wall diving, lagoons and wrecks. Dive sites are the Great White Wall, Purple and Red Wall, Yellow Wall, Rainbow Reef and the Pinnacle. At Beqa you will find a reef-filled lagoon with it's outer reefs having drop-offs that can plunge up to a mile down bringing in sharks and pelagics. Diving is all year, although there is normally a plankton bloom from February thro March. The water here is warm, but a lightweight wetsuit or lycra suit will give protection from abrasion etc.
