The air and water temperatures are both comfortable, making it easy to combine scuba diving with land-based excursions without the excessive heat of summer (or the cold mid-winter evenings).

Featured on Sportdiver:Fiji is home to a great variety of dive sites, especially at Gau Island. The Nigali Passage near Gau is a well-known dive site and understandably so, for the sheer volume of pelagic life and fast currents. It is a beautiful and exciting dive with just a 3-hour window for diving, outside of which the current exceeds 4 knots and the visibility is low.Divers drop into the swift current and ride it through the passage, which is around 20 meters (66 feet) long and resembles a sandy road.
