Excursion Lighthouse snorkeling tour at Savusavu

Experience one of the best underwater coral sites in Savusavu during this panoramic snorkelling excursion at the Lighthouse reef.

Savusavu Bay, Boat-Ride, Guided Snorkelling Session

Depart the pier for the short walk to the dive-boat jetty. Upon arrival, receive your safety and snorkelling instructions, then embark your awaiting boat for the fast, scenic ride along the crystal-clear waters of Savusavu Bay en route to the Lighthouse snorkelling site. Upon arrival at your snorkelling spot, don your gear and safety vest, and begin your guided snorkelling session.

Vibrant, Colourful, and Diverse Coral, Tropical Fish and Marine Life

The Lighthouse Reef is home to some of the most vibrant and colourful coral in Fiji, including numerous plate corals and soft spaghetti corals. In addition, this area is home to a myriad of tropical fish of many sizes and colours, including black-and-white sergeant fish, clownfish, orange and purple anthias, trumpet fish, pale green damsel fish, humpbacked wrasse, maori wrasse, and many more.

Giant Clams, Grouper and Parrotfish, Sea Turtles, Sharks

The scene takes on the appearance of a tropical aquarium as abundant small fish dart in-and-out of the striking coral. Giant clams, groupers and parrotfish are also commonly seen in-and-around the coral formations. Sea turtles frequent the Lighthouse, so it is always a treat to see one or two. Occasionally, a curious, friendly, white-tipped reef shark can be seen cruising the deeper waters below. At the conclusion of your snorkelling tour, return to the dive-boat jetty. Upon arrival, disembark the boat and take the short walk back to the pier.

Note

Please note: This tour involves a moderate amount of boating and a small amount of walking for approximately 109 yards-219 yards (about 100 metres-200 metres), with a few steps to negotiate to embark/disembark the boat, and two-three steps to manoeuvre in/out of the boat. This tour is recommended for guests who are in good physical condition, and can swim in water too deep too stand. This tour is not suitable for pregnant guests, guest with neck and/or back problems, guests with heart and/or respiratory conditions, guests prone to seasickness, guests with limited mobility, and guests who utilise a wheelchair. Guests are advised to wear a swimsuit under a cover-up with beach or water shoes, and bring sun protection, insect repellent, a towel, change of clothing, and credit cards or local currency for purchases from the ship. Guests must be at least 18 years old to participate on this tour. Guests may not snorkel if they have consumed alcohol. Snorkelling equipment is provided. There are no changing facilities on board the boat. Waterproof cameras are highly-recommended. Although frequently encountered on this type of tour, fish and marine life sightings are not guaranteed. A signed waiver is required to participate on this tour. Operation of this tour may be subject to weather conditions and in rough seas the snorkelling location may change to a site closer to land. The tour sequence may vary. Fiji is a low-income country with very basic infrastructure, and vastly different to the western culture mentality. Local conditions may be challenging; therefore, we urge flexibility and understanding as we visit unique and somewhat remote destinations. Coaches, guides, hotels, restaurants, equipment, and services are the best-available in the area, but may not be up to the standards of those found on other excursions. We thank you for your understanding.
