To the south of Viti Levu, less than an hour's boat ride away is Beqa Island, home to Beqa Lagoon Resort - voted "Best dive resort in the world" by Scuba Diving magazine. Here you can achieve some of the famed South Pacific paradise atmosphere without visiting the outer islands.

The resort is centred around a large lawn, decorated with tropical plants, and features a large beachside swimming pool with views over Beqa Lagoon. It has built a deserved reputation for the high quality of its food which is as fresh, varied and imaginative as you will find anywhere in Fiji, with guests choosing their preferred options from the menu each morning.

A feature of the resort that differentiates it from others is the 7 day a week events programme, including local school visits, a choir performance and a display of the legendary Beqa Island fire walking. Because of this, many guests choose a '2 dive a day' programme, with the afternoon left for relaxation and entertainment, although 3 dives per day is also possible, and there is unlimited shore diving as well as the option to go on an exhilarating shark feeding dive.

Beqa Lagoon Resort is built on a prime piece of land along the coastline of Beqa, and it manages to house 25 bures yet maintain a very spacious feel. There are 12 Beachfront bures including a Honeymoon bure, and you can expect your own private courtyard, plunge pool and hammock area to drink in your unrestricted seaview. There are also 9 Garden bures built around a delightful koi fish pond and 4 Two-bedroom Garden bures.

If good food is a high priority for you, and you wish to sample some island feel without the need for taking a domestic flight, then the highly regarded Beqa Lagoon Resort could be the choice for you.

Diving Details...
Most guests make 2 dives per day in the lagoon or around the island of Beqa, although 3 is possible, and there is unlimited shore diving. Dive sites are just a few minutes away. At additional cost, and provided there are sufficient passengers, you can dive the Cathedral, Beqa Island’s own base for shark diving, which is only a 15 minute boat ride from the resort.

The boat leaves at 8.00 am with all the gear already loaded for a 2-tank dive trip. Grab your wetsuit, camera and dry bag, and you're good to go. After a shore surface interval and the second dive, the boat returns around 1.30 pm, where lunch awaits you.

Beqa Resort operates 3 dive boats. The boats are 14-18 metres in length and can accommodate 15-20 scuba divers; the larger boats have twin engines. The boats feature a dive deck, kit up area, ladders, rinse tanks, sundeck, oxygen and first aid kit. Water, juice and biscuits are available on board.

The dive centre has guest scuba equipment storage stations, rinse tanks, camera safe area, shower, and oxygen.

Customer reviews:

Customer rating - Excellent
"At the resort the services, staff, food, diving, were fantastic. They even provided a cake for us on our wedding anniversary. The shark dive was amazing and we felt safe and well looked after the whole time. We'd definitely recommend them." - , Singapore, 17 June 2016 ...

Customer rating - Very good
"They have wonderful staff and dive sites. The DMs are knowledgeable, friendly and capable but their gear is in sad shape. The staff is what makes this resort incredible. It is a beautiful location with access to world class dive sites. The bures are in need of maintenance but comfortable, big and well furnished. The beachfront burrs have nice plunge pools and big decks overlooking the beach- great for relaxing. We had heard the food was first class and were not at all disappointed by any of the meals. It is amazing the 5 star meals that appear from the kitchen. We took full advantage of the spa treatments and had some of the best massages ever! Everyone at the Beqa Resort works very hard to insure you enjoy your stay." - , USA, 17 March 2014 ...
