PADI 5 Star Dive Operation
- Quality: Dives - Service - Equipment - Training -
Experience the magic of diving in Rarotonga's clear, warm waters with fantastic visibility and diversity of marine life which makes it excellent for diving and snorkelling. Or if you've never been diving before we are a full service dive operation who can cater for all your needs and take you out for your first bubbles.
Either if you explore the abundant fish variety of the lagoon right across the road in the Aroa Marine Reserve as a snorkeler or diver or if you take a trip outside the reef you will feel the difference that Rarotonga and The Big Fish has to offer.
If you are diving with us, we guarantee you a personalised, relaxed atmosphere. We have time for our guests, either if you just rent equipment, do your dive course, a dive trip or just pop in for a coffee. Most of our guests come into our shop as customers and leave as friends.
