All about Great White Wall dive site
Great White Wall, situated in the Somosomo Strait (between Vanua Levu and Taveuni in Fiji), is typically a drift dive, rated as one of the best dive sites in the world. The dive begins at a tubular cave, around 15m/49ft deep, full of soft and hard corals, colorful sponges, gorgonian fans and schools of fish. Divers can swim through leads onto a vertical wall of pure white soft coral Dendronepthya. Between the white corals visitors can spot little splashes of orange, red and green, but the overall effect is of a beautiful white wall, stretching 60m/200ft long. Surface conditions can get rough, so the site is not recommended for beginners.
