Rakiraki - Kadavu & Great Astrolabe Reef

Rakiraki sits on the outer edge of Kadavu's reef system, a place where the water really stretches out into the deep. We’ve had some cracking drifts here, just letting the current carry us past walls draped in those enormous sea fans and bright soft corals. You’ll definitely spot reef sharks patrolling the drop-offs, and it’s a good bet for seeing a turtle or two cruising by. It’s a site that suits divers who appreciate a good drift and the feeling of being somewhere a bit wilder, away from the usual boat traffic.
