1. Scuba Dive at One of the World’s Largest Reefs at the Beqa Lagoon
If you know anything about the Pacific Harbour and Beqa Island it’s that this part of Fiji is close to one of the islands’ best scuba diving spots, the Beqa Lagoon. Surrounded by one of the world’s largest barrier reefs with over 306 km (190 mi) of coral, the Beqa Lagoon is a must-hit scuba diving spot for experienced and non-experienced divers alike! Scuba diving is on the agenda of most resorts on the Pacific Harbour and Beqa Island, including the adults-only Royal Davui Island Resort, which is the best way to keep your experience child-free. Otherwise, with the scuba diving age being 10 years and over, you don’t need to worry too much about being surrounded by youngsters.
Location: See other scuba diving operations in the Pacific Harbour listed in The Guide to Scuba Diving in Fiji.

Vamp up the scuba diving experience with cageless shark diving on the Pacific Harbour! That’s right, the nearby Shark Reef Marine Reserve is a protected area for around seven different species of sharks (including huge bull sharks) and around 300 species of fish. Again, the activity isn’t exclusively adult-only, but first, children need to be over 10 years old to scuba dive, and second, there aren’t too many parents putting their kids in the water with sharks… Book your trip with Aqua-Trek Beqa, Beqa Adventure Divers, Coral Coast Divers or through your Pacific Harbour resort. Alternatively, Beqa Lagoon Resort has its own private shark dive known as ‘The Cathedral’.

About 19 km (12 mi) off the coast is one of Fiji’s most famous surf breaks, Frigates Pass. The long and heavy left-hand barrel that is known to break for over 500 ft is a thrill for keen surfers. And be rest assured, the reef break is no place for a kid, making it a sure adult-only experience with your fellow wave-riders.

Far from your noisy tour group experience, fishing in Fiji is always a relaxing experience you can rely on as an adult-only trip. There are many different ways to experience fishing on the Pacific Harbour or Beqa Island. Try native techniques of handline fishing in your own quiet corner of Beqa Island or with open-ocean spearfishing at the Nanuku Resort. Of course, game fishing for whoppers like mahimahi, wahoo and yellowfin tuna is always an option at resorts like The Pearl Resort, Waidroka Resort and more!

With so many resorts offering free kayak hire to use at your own leisure, there’s no excuse not to get out on the water and explore the coast. Kayaking on the Pacific Harbour and Beqa Island is a tranquil experience shared with just your loved one or friends. Resorts like the small (and most often adults-only) Lalati Resort & Spa on Beqa Island offer private/small group kayaking tours to “Bat Island” should you want a guided experience.
For something more adventurous, Rivers Fiji offers an exciting kayaking experience as part of their eco-adventures.

The kayaking tour allows participants to paddle through these stunning landscapes while navigating gentle rapids, making it an ideal mix of adventure and natural beauty. Along the way, participants may also have the chance to stop for a swim or explore hidden waterfalls.
