Comments 2 dives st the Colosseum shark dive location with Coral Coast Divers from Pacific Harbor, Fiji. Nom tigers but lots of ever-hungry bulls, tawny nurse, grey reef, white tip reef and silver tips. Similar to dives I've done before with Aqua Trek from Pacific Harbor and Beqa Lagoon Resort. One of the world's best shark dives. The shark feeder hands off large chunks of fish to the bulls and swims up a few feet to alson feedn the silver tip.
Coral Coast had rooms but I came from the M/S Paul Gauguin on a cruise from Fiji to Tahiti. Arthur, marina supervisor from the Paul Gauguin, arranged this trip and guides from the ship also accompanied us.
