Overview

This is the island run as a sightseeing trip. The high-speed catamaran leaves Port Denarau at 12.15pm and works its way through the Mamanucas, dropping off and picking up guests at well-known resorts, crossing reefs and slipping into blue lagoons, with the crew giving commentary on the way.

It's a scenic cruise only: you stay on board the whole time and step off back at Port Denarau about three hours later. Sit in the air-conditioned lounge or out on the upper decks, and follow the route on the map you're given.

There's a licensed kiosk on board for drinks and snacks, or bring your own food. It suits anyone with half a day in Nadi, families, and travellers deciding which island to book next. The return hotel coach is included.

Common questions about this trip

  • Can I get off at an island?

    No. It's a scenic cruise: you stay on board and get off back at Port Denarau.
  • Is food included?

    No, but there's a licensed kiosk on board and you're welcome to bring your own food.
  • What should I bring?

    Sunscreen and a hat if you want to sit outside, and a card or cash for the kiosk.
  • Is there a fuel surcharge?

    Yes. The ferry operator charges a fuel surcharge on this day trip, currently FJ$10 per adult and FJ$5 per child, paid at the check-in counter at Port Denarau in Fijian dollars.
  • How does the hotel pickup work?

    The free coach runs from most Nadi, Denarau, Vuda and Wailoaloa hotels, and seats must be booked at least 24 hours ahead (we do it with your booking). Be at the pickup point 15 minutes early: drivers can't wait. Miss it and you'll need your own way to Port Denarau.
  • What's the cancellation policy?

    Cancellation terms for this trip are set by the operator and confirmed on your booking voucher. Refunds mirror the operator's policy, if they can refund, so can we. Wanderlust handles the refund for you, refunds mirror the operator's terms 1:1 (including if the operator cancels) and we chase it on your behalf.
