Fabulous Fiji - Volivoli Beach Resort * * * * * December 7-17, 2021
Diving the Heart of Fiji -- Volivoli Beach Resort is located on the northernmost tip of Viti Levu, Fiji's main island. The resort is a two-hour scenic drive from Nadi International Airport and the same from Suva city. You will find the journey to Volivoli Beach memorable in itself, with beautiful views over the coast, jungle, and remote Fijian villages. Arguably one of the best locations in Fiji for a diving vacation, Volivoli Beach is home to Ra Divers, a fully certified PADI and SSI Dive Resort. The reefs in the surrounding Bligh Waters are some of the healthiest in the world, with very little pollution and few boats, so divers enjoy a wide array of marine life including colorful soft corals, anemone fish, turtles, and reef sharks.
