Pacific Harbour is the epicentre of dive tourism on Fiji’s main island of Viti Levu. If your Fiji diving experience does not include venturing to the outer islands then we strongly recommend spending some time in Pacific Harbour.
Those adrenalin-charged shark diving videos you may have seen are from Shark Reef, the spot that has made Pacific Harbour world-famous. There can be as many as 8 different species of shark in the water with you, including BIG ones like tiger sharks and bull sharks.
Shark Reef steals all the headlines and with good cause. How many other chances will you have to be in the water with bull sharks, tawny nurse sharks, whitetip, blacktip and grey reef sharks, sicklefin lemon sharks, silvertips and tiger sharks? [More information on these dive sites: Shark Reef].
If you are here for a few days or more you can also explore the interesting dive sites of Beqa Lagoon where sites such as Caesar’s Rocks, Fantasea and Seven Sisters offer some great chances for sampling the delights of Fiji’s reefs. [More information on these dive sites: Beqa Lagoon].
It is also worth noting that Pacific Harbour is not just about scuba diving packages; it is also the adventure capital of Fiji. Activities include white-water rafting, rainforest zip-lining, horse riding, golf and surfing. Fun for all the family!

As with all of Fiji, the climate is tropical, so it remains warm year-round with little temperature variation. The warmest months are January to March when the mercury rises to 29-30°C. It normally only cools by about 3°C during the winter period of July to September. Summer rain can reduce visibility a little although the water temperatures are in the warmer range of 28-29°C rather than winter’s 25-26°C. Bull sharks will disappear from November to January for mating purposes, and June to August represents the best chance for you to see tiger sharks. The remaining species are present more or less all year through.
To get to Pacific Harbour, most people take a taxi from Nadi or Suva after their arrival. These can be pre-arranged. Some resorts provide transport for you and the overland journey normally takes 2 to 2.5 hours. The top end resorts can include flights to a private airstrip in Pacific Harbour. See our Viti Levu tourist information section for details on how to get there.
