Comments The Great Sea Reef isn't so great! We were surprised at the lack of currents, almost none at all; therefore no soft corals! We've dove 8 weeks total in Fiji and were expecting the lovely soft corals we've had at other locations, NOT HERE. The visibility outside on the walls was great, inside very poor. The upscale resort was not a dive resort, it was a resort with diving. The resort catered to honeymooners and to those wishing seclusion. We thought it may be an undiscovered treasure...not so, for diving.
