Marine Conservation and PADI Divemaster Internship in Fiji

On this PADI Divemaster and marine conservation internship, you’ll spend your days diving around and protecting some of the most beautiful underwater creatures in the world. You will collect data that will enable the community to manage Marine Protected Areas. The first phase of this internship starts with our marine conservation expedition. You will train for 12 weeks to advance your scuba diving skills while exploring the deep blue waters of the Pacific Ocean. You will gain intimate knowledge of how a marine conservation base operates whilst gathering valuable ecological data on the reed and related ecosystems. On successful completion of the expedition phase, you will undertake your PADI Divemaster course during your 12-week work placement phase at a local dive center. You will spend the majority of your time on this internship scuba diving, and therefore require at least a PADI Open Water qualification or equivalent to join.

How to Intern Abroad in Fiji

Prepare to Intern Abroad

Set goals

Before you start your island adventure, it’s important to plan what you want to get out of your experience.

  • Match your field to Fiji’s strengths. Explore options in tourism, conservation, education, or community work that align with your interests.
  • Balance work and exploration. Make time to dive into Fiji’s crystal-clear waters, go hiking, or visit local villages to experience the heart of island life.
  • Budget wisely. Research costs and understand what’s included in your program fees. Many internships cover meals and housing, which helps you save money.
  • Stay open-minded. Fiji’s relaxed pace and culture differ from what you’re used to, but flexibility enhances your experience.

Understand the benefits

Doing an internship in Fiji is a chance to grow personally and professionally in one of the most unique and inspiring environments.

  • Gain global experience. Working abroad helps you adapt, communicate, and think creatively in multicultural settings.
  • Learn from locals. Fijians are known for their warmth and community spirit, making it easy to learn through collaboration and shared experiences.
  • Support sustainability. Many internships in Fiji focus on protecting marine ecosystems and promoting eco-friendly tourism.
  • Boost your career. International experience sets you apart and shows employers that you’re adaptable and ready to take initiative.

Things to know

Before you pack your bags, it’s good to understand what to expect while living and working in Fiji.

  • Language and communication. English is widely spoken, but learning a few Fijian phrases will help you connect even more.
  • Cost of living. Fiji is affordable for interns, as many programs include food or housing, and local markets and transportation are also inexpensive.
  • Visa. Some interns may need a visa depending on their country of origin. Always confirm details with your host program early.
  • Weather and packing. Expect a tropical climate year-round. Lightweight clothing, sunscreen, and a positive attitude are your best essentials.
