Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
Budget for the Vatu-i-Ra visitor contribution when your operator enters the conservation park, normal Fiji departure taxes that are usually built into international tickets, and local village or tour contributions for topside activities. Marine park rules are more important than the amount: no-take zones, no collecting, and controlled island access protect the destination that divers came to see.
