Why dive here
With 382+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, eagle rays, giant moray eels, humpback whales and sperm whales - Wheat Field offers some of Kadavu & Great Astrolabe Reef's richest diving.
Wheat Field lives up to its name. You’ll find a gently sloping reef here, covered in soft corals that sway in the mild current like fields of grain. It’s not about big pelagics, but more about taking your time to watch the smaller creatures hiding amongst the corals – we’ve seen plenty of reef fish flitting about and even a few sleepy reef sharks tucked under ledges. At 24 meters max, it's a calm, easy dive, perfect for newer divers looking for a relaxed exploration rather than an adrenaline rush.
