# where to dive in fiji? Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea
xuqian 07:33 UTC 07 Nov 2010 | want to do my advanced open water in fiji but so many options! want to fly from brisbane, have enough time to do the course and dives and a couple of days afterwards to chill before flying home. where should i go? and any particular dive companies/resorts recommended? cheers :) |

The resort is currently undergoing a makeover but will be open for limited bookings in about a month and fully operational again in Feb next year. We have been there twice this year. My wife did her Rescue diver course there and everyone we have spoken to has been pleased with the dive training they received. | 1
