Comments Taveuni Dive Resort is first class. Very rural location off the grid, so no a/c, but we didn't need it in September. We got the meal plan, there's no alternative restaurant, but fortunately an excellent chef. Management answered emails promptly. Rainbow reef is a 15-20 minute ride. Saw reef sharks on about every dive and 1 leopard. The best dive spots here are as good as anything we've seen anywhere, just magical. We did 2 tanks in the am with a surface interval on another island, then lunch at the resort and an afternoon dive. We went on the waterfall hike one day, do it if you've got $120 to burn. Rained 1 day out of 7 and we stopped after the first dive that day because of surface visibility. Oh, there are rainbows over the rainbow reef.
