Taveuni Dive Resort’s Fleet

Our dive operation has four vessels. We have two 12 diver boats, an 8 diver boat, and a 6 diver boat – each hull was custom made for us by Leeda Boats. These aluminum self-bailers are powered by outboard motors to maximize interior space. The hulls have proven to be very stable in the Somosomo Straits.  Dive entry is via giant stride off the rear platform, or a backward roll off the side. The port swim platform is equipped with a ladder. Out boats do not have a head.  Safety gear includes first aid, medical oxygen, tools, personal flotation devices for all passengers, marine radio, cellular phone, as well as all the other items you would expect to make your day a little better.
