Surrounded by over 190 miles of spectacular coral, Beqa Lagoon is one of the worlds largest barrier reefs. Diving these calm protected waters is like exploring another world. The water is clear and warm, visibility is typically over 100 feet, currents are mild, and the water temperature stays a fairly constant 80 degrees. Many of the most spectacular dive sights are only a few minutes from shore, and if you stayed long enough, you could explore over 100 different sights! The divemasters at Beqa Lagoon have been diving in these waters since they were children and are some of the most caring people you ever meet. Our divers know every reef and coral head, and if you stay close they will show you some of the most intriguing creatures ever. Blue Ribbon Eels, Clown Triggers, Lion Fish, Leaf Scorpions, Reef Sharks and millions of colorful Anthias and Fusiliers all abound in these waters. As for Fiji itself, half the country is covered with natural forests. Most of the territory has not been extensively developed or exploited. There are more than 2000 indigenous plant species. If you want to see, what real jungles are, this is the place to come to. Have you ever wanted to see orchids growing in their natural surroundings? Come to Fiji. Beqa Lagoon Resort features 25 deluxe, private air-conditioned villas (called bures), spread out beneath the lush tropical landscape. Each of these generously sized mini-suites are beautifully appointed with traditional island decor. The most striking feature of Beqa Lagoon Resort is its seclusion. Only fifteen square kilometers, Beqa Island has no roads, no towns and only a few isolated villages scattered around the perimeter. The island is skirted by stretches of sandy beach laced with mysterious tide pools. Meals are served in the casual elegance of our spacious open air Bure Kalou. The chef Laniana “LaLa” prepares a wide variety of dishes that amaze even the most experienced gourmet. Enjoy fine dining with a magnificent range of taste sensations including fresh local fish, vegetables and fruit, New Zealand lamb, Australian beef and incredible desserts. There are plenty of choices to quench your thirst — imported wines, Fijian beer, fresh squeezed juice and refreshing spring water. This trip will fill fast. Don’t miss out.
