At FDVC (Fiji Dive Volunteer [Marine] Conservation) we offer you a flexible range of programs to suit your diving abilities. Just ask us if you want to complete additional certificates too.
Our dive shop is a member of the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI) and all our dive programs are PADI certified, so you can be assured that you are getting a quality program. All FDVC’s programs run concurrently, which means that you meet people on the other programs, and share your experiences together.
But there’s more than just diving! Our programs offer Marine Conservation and Reef Check training with a highly experienced marine biologist and the opportunity to assist on a volunteer conservation project through our dive provider and PADI Project Aware. You also get to chill out on the beach, live with Fijian families, spend time with your new friends from the program and live in houses right by the sea. You have the time of your life, kava drinking, watching glorious sunsets, being a volunteer and doing lots of activities. Check out our program activities.
