Lomaiviti

Fiji

Always dived on an incoming current.  Enter where the channel opens to the open ocean, drift with the current.  Large schools of barracuda and trevally are found near the beginning where the channel is nearly 100 feet deep.  Towards the top of the channel it forks.  Grab a rock at "the bleachers" on the right side of the main channel where it forks to the right.  Hang out here at 60 feet to watch the grey reef sharks circling.  Keep an eye out for hammerheads and manta rays coming through.  Be careful leaving here, as the channel rapidly becomes only 15 feet deep and the current will try to push you shallow quickly.  Check out the lagoon wall which slopes from 15 feet down to hundreds.
