Three Dives in a Day!

Cavalli Islands
Ruahine Shoal * Taheke Reef * Tunnels
Special dives for the brave & experienced!

Ruahine Shoal This site is only dreamed of by divers, it is an exceptionally stunning dive site! 

When you first arrive, you feel you are in the middle of nowhere, but once you drop into the blue, huge schools of Mau Mau literally block your view, spit through your reg and suddenly 35 metres of vis becomes your playground, you won’t want to go far though, as cruising round the pinnacle a mass of Demoiselles part like a curtain and schools of Trevally and Kahawai come to greet you.

The top of the pinnacle is barren with stubbly weed, notably this site is one of the unspoilt beauties of the Cavalli’s and a prize for the more experienced divers.  Kingfish swim around in large shoals, as do the Bronze Whalers – if you’re lucky!

Taheke Reef This is a pure adrenaline dive!

This isolated reef is approx 1.2 miles from the nearest land and usually has a current so it is a dive for the brave and experienced only. The top of the pinnacle is 8 metres from the surface and drops vertically to 40 metres.  The walls are a profusion of brilliantly coloured anemones and sponges.  Various rare fish can be seen including Gold Ribbon Groper and Lord Howe Island Coralfish often with sightings of Marlin and the occasional ‘Munchies’

The Tunnels This is one of the best dives under 16 metres you’ll ever experience!

This stunning site is as beautiful above the surface as it is below.  Dive it right and it will be a current assisted dive where you’ll be propelled through some great swimthroughs with little or no effort.  Once out of the Tunnels, a beautiful dive starts in earnest; around a couple of small pinnacles with yet more archways and swimthroughs to enjoy.  From the very beginning of this dive you’ll be absolutely captivated; Spotted Groper, Stingrays and an array of fish around the pinnacles are all there for you to enjoy.
