Beqa Island Fiji Diving Sites

Caesar's Rocks

The legend of Caesar's Rocks spread far and wide and became top of many divers wish list when visiting Fiji. Diving Beqa Island at its best. The topography of the site will be the first thing that strikes you as you descend onto a collection of bommies dotted in soft corals. It is the diversity of colour that will strike you first here as pinks, reds and oranges all fill your view.

And it's not only on the exterior of the bommies that such colourful life proliferates. These bommies exhibit a series of channels, caverns and windows, none of which are free of a tremendous splash of vivid colouration. There are also plenty of giant gorgonians providing shelter to longnose hawkfish and trumpetfish, among others. Photographers tend to go a bit 'Snap happy' here as there are so many great photo opportunities particularly in the amazing, coral lined tunnel that runs along at around a depth of 15 metres.

An American dive magazine once called this site "The Mecca of Pacific Diving", though it is difficult to believe that this still holds true. If the scenery and swim-throughs are not enough to keep you mesmerised then look out for nudibranchs and blennies in and around the small crevices. Larger sights here that can further add to your enjoyment of this spot include small schools of tuna, the possibility of a turtle passing through and, if you are very lucky, the odd manta ray might swoop gracefully by.

Regardless of what unforeseeable sightings you have here at Caesar's Rocks this is one of the top Beqa sites, and should be enough to ensure much excited chatter when back on the dive boat.
