Why dive here
With 382+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, eagle rays, giant moray eels, humpback whales and sperm whales - Colleen’s Garden offers some of Kadavu & Great Astrolabe Reef's richest reef diving.
Colleen’s Garden makes for a gentle drift, perfect for those days when you just want to relax and watch the reef go by. We’ve found it’s a good spot to really slow down, maybe practice your buoyancy. Keep an eye out for nudibranchs tucked into the soft corals. With a max depth of 21 metres and minimal current, it’s certainly a comfortable dive, especially if you’re newer to the reef.
