Sorry to make another post about where to stay and dive in Fiji. I’ve read most of the threads on the subject on this forum, but still need some advice.
July 2014, I’m travelling to Fiji. I’m primarily interested in diving---great diving sites and a good dive operation (good boats, good dive masters, consistently enough divers to run dedicated dive boats and hopefully enough to separate the new from the experienced) will make up for average accommodations.
I’m planning on diving Bligh Water and Taveuni and I’m looking for a suggestion to round out my trip. I thought about diving Beqa Lagoon with Beqa Lagoon Resort, but I’ve read mixed reviews about the dive sites and dive operation. I’m not sure it’s worth spending 7 days there. Perhaps I should dive Beqa Lagoon for just a few days with Aqua Trek?
I also considered diving from Naigani Island, but again, I’ve read some mixed reviews, namely about the dive operation and not consistently having enough divers.
Namena seems like a great place to dive, but Moody’s is out of my price range. Some dive operations out of Savusavu dive Namena, but I’m not sure it’s worth diving Savusavu hoping to get to Namena.
Edit: After reading some posts, I'm adding Kadavu/Ono Island. It seems people recommend either Mai Dive or Matava Resort. Does anybody have up-to-date information on the diving there? I've read it's very weather dependent. Considering the time I'll be there (July), what's the likelihood of getting good weather?
I appreciate any information.
Thanks,
Jack
