And some of the dive sites the centre runs.
The reefs around Savusavu and Namena are defined by their spectacular soft coral (Alcyonacea) gardens. These colonies provide a complex architecture for a vast array of tropical reef fish, including various species of Angelfish (Pomacanthidae), Butterflyfish (Chaetodon), and Wrasse (Labridae).
You will frequently encounter larger residents such as Grouper (Epinephelinae), Snappers (Lutjanidae), and various species of Jack (Carangidae). The presence of reef sharks, including Whitetip reef sharks (Triaenodon obesus), is a common feature of these healthy ecosystems.
Depending on local conditions, divers may also encounter Hammerhead shark (Sphyrna) sightings. The area's pelagic presence is further bolstered by visiting species like Barracuda (Sphyraena) and Tuna (Thunnus).
For those interested in smaller life, the reef holds a variety of Nudibranch (Chromodoris willani) and other macro life tucked within the coral structures. Large clams and various sea anemone fish also inhabit the reef flats and ledges.
