Rainbow Wall - Gizo & Western Province

Rainbow Wall does exactly what it says on the tin. It's a wall, and it's vibrant. Drop down and you're greeted by a riot of soft corals – purples, yellows, oranges – almost overwhelming in their density, especially the gorgonian fans that stretch out into the blue. We've often found ourselves just drifting along, watching schools of fusiliers swirl past and keep an eye out for nudibranchs tucked into the crevices. It’s a great intermediate dive, not too deep, and perfect if you appreciate a colourful, gentle drift rather than big pelagics.
