Vanuatu offers an exceptional diving experience characterized by its diverse marine life and stunning underwater landscapes. Dives are typically conducted from small speed boats that transport divers to the local lagoons and reefs, often making multiple trips throughout the day. Some dive sites are so close to the shore that divers can easily access them by walking in from the beach. However, there are a few sites with running currents that demand a degree of experience.
Divers exploring the waters of Vanuatu are treated to excellent visibility, allowing them to be mesmerized by the abundance of marine life that thrives among the reefs. The underwater scenery is nothing short of breathtaking, featuring beautiful gorgonians, a vivid spectrum of corals, and captivating topography that serves as a backdrop to the multitude of small reef fish that perpetually school in the shallower waters. The marine life includes an array of species like triggerfish, angelfish, batfish, clownfish, turtles, and the occasional shark at more remote sites. Elusive creatures like eels, octopus, and crustaceans can be found among coral heads, while rays gracefully glide through the sandy lagoons. The swift currents along the outer reef walls attract larger game fish such as bigeye tuna, barracuda, and jack, creating exciting opportunities for underwater encounters.
Vanuatu is also an exceptional destination for divers seeking the rare opportunity to swim with dugongs. These shy mammals feed on seagrass near the shore and can be observed throughout the archipelago, providing a unique and memorable experience for those lucky enough to encounter them.
The numerous shipwrecks in Vanuatu's waters offer more than just historical intrigue; they serve as fascinating artificial reefs that harbor diverse marine species. Among the rusting superstructures, one can spot unusual creatures like crocodile fish and scorpionfish, showcasing the region's rich underwater biodiversity. Vanuatu's dive sites promise an unforgettable adventure for divers of various levels of experience, offering a chance to explore a world of vibrant marine ecosystems and intriguing wrecks.

The center equips divers with well-maintained gear for rent, including tanks, regulators, and wetsuits, guaranteeing safe and well-prepared dives. Accompanied by certified dive instructors and guides, guests can embark on underwater journeys that reveal the beauty of Vanuatu's marine life, featuring colorful corals, gorgonians, and abundant schools of reef fish, including triggerfish, angelfish, batfish, clownfish, turtles, and the occasional shark at more remote sites. Vanuatu's unique offerings, such as the chance to swim with dugongs, add an extra layer of excitement to the diving experience.
