Perfect day outting! - Such a great day trip! Beautiful island just a short 30mins ferry from port Denarau.
Such an array of activities from snorkeling, diving, kayaking, paddleboarding to getting a massage. I spend my time diving and snorkeling, the reef was beautiful and we got to see reef sharks! Mel from the dive centre was very knowledgeable and took me for a wonderful dive, while also refreshing my knowledge (certified diver). Anyone can dive whatever your level!
Wonderful day it just went too fast!

Half day was just the right amount of time - Lunch on arrival was delicious and the complimentary drinks were very welcomed. The glass bottom boat was a super fun activity. Snorkelling in the outer reef with the guided snorkel tour is a must but snorkelling from the beach is also enjoyable. An overall very pleasant day on a tropical island.

Beautiful little island visit - What a beautiful little island! The lunch was delicious and fresh and the glass bottom boat trip was excellent. We got to see coral so close up. I would highly recommend for families with young children. The performance was great and the Fijian men that take pics with the kids were amazing and went above and beyond to get great pictures! Will definitely come back again!

Enjoy - The Figi singers were fabulous along with the glass partially submerged submarine to see the fish. We did this the day we came into Fiji and it was a great way to spend a relaxing afternoon after all night flight

South Sea Half day cruise Fiji - I would highly recommend the half-day cruise that comes with lunch and snorkeling included, for those that love to chillax on the beach. Diving is additional cost. The undersea adventure was ok! I loved how committed they are with organising lunch. They went above and beyond to get me vegetarian meals, cooking up freshly on the spot! I think that was the best highlight of my trip! It’s a beautiful beach, scenery is great! One must enjoy this ride!

Beautiful island for a half day trip - Unfortunately most of the activities were cancelled because of high winds - no kayaking, glass bottom boat and snorkelling so there was limited things to do with my 6 year old. This was definitely not the fault of the island management - they made the decision for our safety. We still enjoyed the pool, we loved the cultural singing and dancing and the food was yum. Still worth going!

Not suitable for swimming - The people, the food was incredible.
But unfortunately we left disappointed as we were excited for a swim in the ocean in magnetic Fiji. This is not a swimming Island - there is more coral than sand, the water is covered in rocks and it’s unseeable. Especially when the water is a little choppy.
They also do not have enough snorkel gear for all the visitors which was very disappointing.
I would not recommend for young families. We did enjoy the relax on the sand though.
Also the checkin process at the port was absolutely chaotic and we had no idea where to go or what to do and the day tours had to line up with the other checkins which was unnecessary.
Overall I would never have gone if I realised we couldn’t enjoy a day swimming!
