Discover a truly unique dive experience in Tonga, where history meets natural wonders. Guests can explore the historic Clan McWilliam wreck, a 127-metre steam freighter that sank in 1927, now resting just steps from the dive centre. At night, our house reef is alive with fluorescent coral and colourful nudibranchs, offering an unforgettable underwater adventure guided by a passionate, environmentally-focused team.
