Nusa Roviana Wall

Nusa Roviana Wall is one of those Solomon Islands spots that just hits different. We love how the reef just drops away, a proper wall dive that feels like you’re flying along the edge of a submerged cliff. The gorgonian fans here are massive, truly impressive, some of the biggest we’ve seen in the Solomons, and they flutter gently in the current, creating a dynamic backdrop. This isn’t just a pretty wall though; the fish life is consistently good. We’ve drifted past schools of blue and gold fusiliers so dense they shimmer like a curtain, and the orange-lined triggerfish are surprisingly bold here, often coming in close to check you out. Keep an eye out in the blue for the larger stuff, we’ve had eagle rays cruise by a few times. For the macro lovers, the wall is covered in nooks and crannies hiding nudibranchs and even the occasional messmate pipefish. It’s a site that suits anyone who appreciates a classic wall dive with healthy corals and a solid mix of big and small critters. We'd suggest hitting it mid-morning when the light really plays nicely off the wall.
