Is there any good diving on the west side-Nadi?

[Jonny Phish]

Hi everyone!

I'm new to this forum, please forgive any etiquette errors. My wife and I are celebrating our 15th anniversary with a trip to Fiji and Auckland. We got a smoking deal on travel/hotel, but have only 5 days on the ground in Fiji and are staying in Nadi. From the research I've done it looks like the best diving is everywhere else...lol.

Can anyone share some insights or ideas to get in a couple of good dives while we're there?

Thanks much!

You can do day trips out of Nadi to do the shark dive at Beqa. Bit of a long day (2.5 hour drive each way), but doable

you have the option of taking the ferry from denarau marina out to the yasawas for some ok diving or traveling over to volivoli/wananavu which is better diving when they can get you out to the bligh waters if you don't want to fly to the outer islands.

if you can line up the flight though, savu savu would be better.

Sounds like the poster has a package deal with hotel each night in Nadi. So, looks he need ideas for day trips from Nadi for diving.
