Swimming Pools is Fiji's premier high-performance right—a rippable wave that breaks over coral in crystal-clear water near Namotu Island. Unlike the heavy lefts that dominate this region (Cloudbreak, Restaurants), Swimming Pools offers a more forgiving canvas for progressive surfing. The water is so clear it looks like you're surfing in an aquarium. It's the perfect complement to a Fiji trip, offering playful sessions when the bigger waves become too challenging or the direction favors rights.
