Fiji 2028 with First Coast Divers: Your Next Big Adventure Starts Here

We’re beyond excited to share some BIG news we’ve been working on: First Coast Divers is heading back to FIJI — for our THIRD trip!  And we want you to join us for what’s guaranteed to be the dive trip of a lifetime.

Trip Dates: April 22 – May 2, 2028 / 10 Full Days at the Resort
Destination: VoliVoli Beach Resort, Fiji

VoliVoli is a tropical paradise perched on the edge of the world-famous Bligh Waters, one of the most spectacular dive locations on Earth. Imagine diving in crystal-clear waters, exploring vibrant coral gardens, swimming alongside reef sharks, giant sea fans, and clouds of colorful fish — this is that dream come true.

 

The Perfect Time to Go

April and May are absolutely ideal months to visit Fiji. It’s the sweet spot between seasons, offering warm, sunny days, calm seas, and excellent underwater visibility. It's one of the best times of year for diving — and relaxing — in this island paradise.

 

Led by Experienced Trip Leaders

This will be our third Fiji adventure, and with Dan and Suzy leading the way once again, you're in great hands. Their experience organizing and guiding previous trips to Fiji means you’ll benefit from a well-planned, seamless experience from start to finish. From logistics to dive planning to creating a fun, inclusive group vibe — we’ve got it all covered so you can just focus on enjoying every moment.

 

Underwater Wonder Awaits

The diving here is truly world-class. VoliVoli offers direct access to incredible sites like Black Magic Mountain, Mellow Yellow, and Purple Haze — all teeming with life and wrapped in soft corals that look like something out of a fantasy. Whether you love drift diving, wall dives, pinnacles, or macro photography, there’s something here for every diver, from beginner to advanced.

Every dive feels like swimming through a living masterpiece.

 

Above the Surface: Pure Paradise

But it’s not just the diving that makes this trip special. VoliVoli Beach Resort is a luxurious escape with stunning oceanview rooms, amazing cuisine (yes, packed with fresh local flavor!), and everything you need to unwind after a day underwater.

When you're not diving, you can:

• Relax poolside with a tropical drink

• Enjoy a massage at the spa

• Join a local cultural tour to experience the real Fiji

• Or simply take in the ocean breeze and island vibes

It’s the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.

 

Traveling with First Coast Divers: More Than a Trip

What really makes this experience unforgettable? The people you share it with.

When you join First Coast Divers, you’re not just booking a dive vacation — you’re becoming part of our dive family. Whether you're coming solo, with a buddy, or with friends, you’ll feel welcomed from day one. We laugh, explore, support one another, and create incredible memories — both above and below the surface. And with our experienced team by your side every step of the way, all you need to do is relax and enjoy the ride.

 

Why Fiji Feels Like Home

One of the most cherished parts of our past Fiji trips has been connecting with the Fijian people. Their warmth, kindness, and rich cultural heritage make this destination truly special. From sharing stories with locals to learning about their traditions and way of life, Fiji offers more than breathtaking views — it offers meaningful connection.

And the landscape? Absolutely stunning. Think lush green hills, swaying palms, and endless ocean views. It’s nothing short of paradise.

 

 

Why the Bligh Waters Are World-Renowned

 

1. The Soft Coral Capital of the World

Fiji’s Bligh Waters are renowned for their kaleidoscope of soft corals. Thanks to nutrient-rich currents and ideal conditions, these reefs explode in purples, oranges, reds, and yellows — draped across pinnacles and walls like underwater rainbows.

 

2. Unrivaled Marine Biodiversity

Prepare to see:

• Reef sharks, manta rays, barracuda, and trevally

• Huge schools of fusiliers, anthias, and snapper

• Tiny treasures like nudibranchs, ghost shrimp, and pipefish

• Occasional sightings of hammerheads, whale sharks, and turtles

Fiji’s unique location in the South Pacific means every dive is full of surprises.

 

3. Currents Bring Life

The tidal currents that flow through the Bligh Waters feed the reefs and energize the ecosystem. That means color, action, and marine life density like nowhere else. Drift diving here is like flying through a technicolor alien garden.

 

4. Pristine, Remote, and Uncrowded

Because the area is mostly accessed via dive resorts or liveaboards, the reefs remain healthy, vibrant, and uncrowded. No over-dived sites. No coral damage. Just pure, peaceful exploration.

 

5. Dive Sites for Every Experience Level

• Gentle bommies and shallow reefs for newer divers

• Epic walls and thrilling drifts for the adventurous

• Stunning visibility and photo-friendly subjects for underwater photographers

Every dive offers something new — you’ll never be bored.

 

Bonus: Complimentary Nitrox!

The first 14 divers to sign up receive free Nitrox for the trip — a $125 value! Extend your bottom time and feel better after your dives.

 

Ready to Join Us?

If you’ve been dreaming of an unforgettable dive adventure — filled with beauty, connection, and pure fun — this is it. Fiji 2028 is gonna be something special, and we’d love to have you with us!    - Cheers, Dan & Suzy 

Spots are limited and will go faster than you think, so don’t wait to reach out if you're interested or have questions. Let’s make memories that last a lifetime — above and below the surface.
