Advanced divers can head down the steep wall at Tepa Fans, which is adorned with large colonies of gorgonian coral. This site, near Namukulu, is popular for cave diving as divers can explore two large caverns, also called the 'Namukulu Motels', which are connected by a narrow corridor. Situated close to Alofi, this location offers divers a chance to drop vertically through a shaft and side exit through a large cavern into the open sea. One of Niue's most popular dive sites, this area was declared a marine national reserve in 1998. There is a ship wreck in the area for wreck diving, as well as a varied marine population including eagle rays and coral trout.
Special cruise packages to the reef are available.
Because of the sheer drops from reefs into deep ocean, land-based game fishing is a unique experience here. Traditional outrigger canoes and motor boats can be arranged for line-fishing expeditions. Visitors travelling to Niue by yacht should avoid arriving at weekends as entry clearance services provided by the Immigration and Port authorities are closed. At Niue Sport Club, there is a 9-hole golf course, with balls, clubs and trundlers for hire, and two tennis courts. Traditional Niuean cricket is the most popular spectator sport and can be seen in any village when in season.
