Fiji is one of the world's most popular tropical dive destinations and much of this interest is due to the superb diving in the north around Taveuni, the Ringgold Atolls, Rambi and Kioa's acclaimed reefs. Here we find reefs ablaze with every colour of the rainbow, as multi-hued soft corals and fish feed in the tidal currents. Add to this clear, warm tropical waters and you have truly world-class diving.

But what if you’re not a certified diver?
What if you’ve never been scuba diving in your life? In that case, you have an amazing opportunity: A course called Discover Scuba Diving, taught by our onboard PADI Dive Instructor - absolutely no prior diving experience necessary. We provide all your equipment. Standing in shallow water with our instructor, you are guided to merely bend down till you’re underwater. That’s how you become familiar with the scuba gear – and if there’s any anxiety, you just stand up. After some brief instruction, when you and the instructor feel you’re ready, you go for a real scuba dive at an amazing dive site – with your own personal instructor by your side the whole time.
Want to learn more? How about do your PADI Open Water Diver course! You can complete the reading/written work online before your trip, then just do the instructor led dives during your adventure cruise. More info on Tui Tai's PADI eLearning Program
MARINE BIOLOGY AND CONSERVATION CERTIFICATION
We’re dedicated to supporting conservation of Fiji’s marine ecosystems. One of the ways you can participate in the conservation program is by taking our Marine Biology and Conservation course. The course has been designed in conjunction with the PADI Project Aware and Go-ECO campaigns. This course is a great way to learn about marine conservation efforts and make your own contribution to the cause. The Marine Biology and Conservation course is available to scuba divers AND snorkelers.
Tui Tai is the South Pacific’s only “Full-Service Dive Operation in Luxury-Adventure Class.” What this means is when you dive, you don’t have to touch a scuba tank. We literally put it on your back and take it off your back. And the gear? Just leave it in our dive-boat and our crew deals with getting it onboard the main vessel, rinsed, and ready for your next dive. We do everything required to maintain our dives in Luxury-Adventure Class.

AWAY.COM: "The Tui Tai is hands down the coolest thing to do in Fiji... Tui Tai has only one purpose: to make sure you go to sleep each night swearing you just spent the best day of your life."
LONELY PLANET: "Perfect for
tourists who aren’t all that fond of tours, a voyage with Tui Tai Adventure
Cruises is a fantastic way to see and do a great deal in a short time.
Sailing between Vanua Levu, Taveuni and the more remote islands of Kioa and
Koro, you’ll get to snorkel, kayak, bike, trek, swim, fish, dive or just
lounge on deck to your heart’s content. Dolphins swimming alongside the
boat, star-lit dinners on deck, and the welcoming villagers you meet on the
out-of-the way islands all make it a blissful experience."
