About this site
Golden Arch is a dive site in Fiji named for an enormous archway swim-through covered in orange and yellow soft coral. The arch is the highlight, but there are many other coral-covered swim-throughs and crevices to explore.
In the shallower part of the site, rocky pinnacles carry sea fans, black corals and purple and pink soft corals. Depths run from 5 to 20 metres. Reef sharks, schooling surgeonfish, tuna and barracuda can often be seen here.
