The Meridian Adventure Dive Resort is set up to focus on the three most important components of dive holidays.

  • The perfect dive site every time in consideration of currents and conditions.
  • Reliable equipment and efficient transport to and from dive sites.
  • Modern, yet clean and simple accommodation with great food.

Restaurant & Dining

The Meridian Adventure Dive resort offers a ‘fusion’ restaurant, with a menu is designed to embrace food in its natural form, allowing for clean, uncomplicated flavours. The menus complement the local Waisai culinary style rather than attempt to compete with it. Much of their produce is sourced locally, and some even grown fresh at the resort.

The Meridian Adventure Dive resort has a fully stocked bar with Juice, Sodas, Beer and Spirits, an International Wine List, and cocktails.

The resort is an environmentally conscious organization that aims to minimize negative environmental impact. Plastic water bottles are not supplied – instead, each room is supplied with two stainless steel water bottles which can be refilled at the water station at reception.
