Kai Viti Divers is owned by Mike & Julie Trussell who have considerable experience in Fiji and particularily the Bligh Waters. The diving in the Vat-Tui-Rah Passage is OUTSTANDING with more fish per square foot than we have seen anywhere. We have been out with this operation twice this year and will be returning again in 2005.
Great Fast Jet Boat set-up for 16 Divers Max that gets to the sites very comfortably and protects the divers in case of wind and rain with a complete enclosure of the rear deck that can be lowered when needed.
We should have left about half of the clothes we took home and travelled with only shorts & shirts. |

Soft Coral Capitol of the World. Boat & Crew is top notch with adequate camera table and rinse tanks. Crew very careful with camera gear and both rinsed and placed on camera table after each dive. |
