May Tag
May Tag is a scenic Fiji drift reef with a soft-coral wall and pinnacle.

A boat-drift site where tide timing and current shape the dive along the reef face.
About May Tag
May Tag is a Fiji drift reef in the Vatu-i-Ra Passage, built around a steep wall and a small pinnacle wrapped in purple soft coral. The dive is scenic rather than gentle, and the outgoing tide is the usual window for moving cleanly along the coral face. Marine life adds to the color, so the site is about reef structure, coral texture, and current timing working together.
