Rainbow Reef is a reef in the Somosomo Strait between the Fijian islands of Taveuni and Vanua Levu. It is one of the most famous dive sites in the South Pacific, home to the Great White Wall, a popular scuba diving site named for the white coral that grows at depths of 15 to 65 meters. The reef's patch structure and marine ecosystem contribute to its recognized national significance under Fiji's Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan.
