3 Sisters - Kadavu & Great Astrolabe Reef
The 3 Sisters site in Kadavu offers a really pleasant, easy dive. We're talking gentle slopes down to around 23 meters, perfect if you're just getting started or fancy a relaxed drift. You'll find a good mix of hard and soft corals here, with plenty of reef fish flitting between the bommies. It’s a comfortable depth for checking out the smaller stuff – nudibranchs, maybe a lionfish tucked away. Think of it as a nice warm-up, or a chill afternoon dive when you're not chasing big pelagics.
