Cannibal’s Cave - Kadavu & Great Astrolabe Reef

Cannibal’s Cave is a good spot if you’re looking for a relaxed cave dive without the chills. It’s more of an overhang really, a deep cut into the reef that lets you swim right in. At about 20 meters, you’ll find plenty of space to explore with natural light still reaching most corners, so it never feels too enclosed. We’ve often seen schooling bannerfish here, sometimes a whitetip reef shark cruising the entrance, and the occasional turtle resting on the sandy bottom inside. It’s genuinely suitable for beginners who want to try something a bit different, offering a calm, sheltered dive.
