Great White Wall

About this site

The Great White Wall in Fiji's Rainbow Passage — a tidal channel between Taveuni and Vanua Levu — is one of the Indo-Pacific's most photographed dives. Below 30 m a sheer wall is entirely coated in white soft coral (Dendronephthya sp.) that blooms open in the strong current, creating an ethereal snowfield effect. The passage is diveable on incoming tide only, and the flow carries hammerhead sharks, grey reef sharks, and vast schools of snapper past the wall.
