Why dive here
With 382+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, eagle rays, giant moray eels, humpback whales and sperm whales - NAMOTU FISH MARKET offers some of Kadavu & Great Astrolabe Reef's richest diving.
Namotu Fish Market might not have the dramatic drop-offs of some other Kadavu sites, but it delivers on its name. We’ve always found a lively cast of characters here, particularly on the sandy patches bordering the reef. You’ll usually spot bluefin trevally patrolling, often with a school of snapper or fusiliers nearby, making for some good photo opportunities. It’s a shallow, easy dive, perfect for newer divers getting comfortable with reef navigation, or for those days when you just want a relaxed potter among the fish. We often see giant clams tucked into the coral, too, which is always a treat.
