The Island
110 acres · Koro Sea · Fiji
A place that exists on its own terms
Namena sits at the heart of Fiji's largest marine reserve. Of 110 acres, only 10 are developed. The rest is untouched — a bird sanctuary and reef ecosystem that has been left entirely alone.

Tidal flow through the Namena reef passages drives visibility and current strength. High tide delivers clearer water to shallow sites; outgoing tide powers drift dives through Grand Central Station and the western walls.
