Dive Rarotonga

Dive Rarotonga, the site, often gets confused with the dive shop, but don't let that deter you. We're talking about the drift dive, just outside the main passage. You drop in near the reef cut, and the current, usually a gentle push, just carries you along the wall. It’s incredibly relaxing, like someone else is doing all the hard work. Look out into the blue for chances at reef sharks cruising by – we’ve had some great encounters there. The wall itself is a tapestry of hard corals, big staghorn tables, and plenty of crevices holding all sorts of smaller life. Keep an eye out for the Golden Cleaner Wrasse busy at their stations. The light penetration here is often fantastic, especially on a sunny morning, painting the reef in bright blues and greens. This drift is a fantastic way to ease into Raro’s diving, suitable for anyone comfortable with a bit of movement.
