World class coral and fishlife begins at the lagoon fringing reef and dropoff within swimming distance of the lodge, just grab your mask and you’re surrounded with marine life. 26–32°C water and excellent visibility year round means no wetsuit.........how snorkelling is meant to be. Wide, safe swim steps on the Lodge jetty access the tame fish around our small Marine Protected Area, the fish species count for the that small inshore area alone stands at approx .

......the endless coral gardens of Bulo island.......

Jump in the boat at your doorstep with your Marovo guide and in five minutes you’ll be at the very best coral, fishlife and visibility, or where the pelagics are congregating at that time, tide, and moonphase

The remoteness means the only other people in the water are those you take with you, and there’s an outrigger canoe if you want to lose the boat and go solo.There's weights available at the lodge to make the most of the dropoffs and clear water.

And you don't need to be Pipin to see spectacular fishlife - the visibility lets you see all sorts of fishlife by just finning along the surface in protected bays or riding the current along the walls with boat pick up downcurrent. For those new to snorkelling and the reef, we have experienced, patient guides who can help you explore the underwater world, and even non-swimmers have enjoyed the underwater spectacle at Bulo Island with us.

Bulo Island, a short boat ride from Peava has coral gardens, swim-throughs and walls with overhanging tropical rainforest and hidden skull shrines. Follow schools of huge bump-headed parrotfish and hawksbill turtles through tunnels and surface to hear the heavy wingbeat of a hornbill overhead and the heady smell of orchids.

Malemale Island just 5 minutes from the Lodge has a range of different habitats and topography.

With an infinite number of sites there is always a choice of sheltered spots - dive every day in new, epic spot!

......and the ever-present schools of barracuda.

Adventure we can provide aplenty - from night dives on 0 foot outside walls and jumping into the middle of a yellowfin tuna frenzy to diving the offshore FADs anchored in thousands of metres of water. Possibiliteis exist for snorkelling with our resident pods of spinner dolphins and visiting pilot and false killer whales.

Reef and bluewater spearfishing trips available to dozens of locations from caving for trout to bluewater baitballs with expert spearing guides - see the spearfishing & freediving page for more details and images.

Gear available for hire at the Lodge, including weights and belts, and dive torches for exploring the reef at night - a whole different world.

See you in the water!
