5.00This was a great way to spend the day. From the moment you arrived you felt welcomed from the amazing staff. We were able to try kava on the vessel. There was plenty to do on the island or just relax. We saw Bali the next day and she greeted us with open arms. We will be back.
Great Experience

4.00Was a nice day out. The people are super friendly! We mainly wanted to snorkel and kayak, but the water was very murky. Snorkeling was awful, and we only saw 1 kayak to use. We would have appreciated the opportunity to change days for a better experience as those were the main activities we wanted to do and ended up just sitting on the beach the entire time. The lunch was great. The tour says, "sail". It isn't a sailboat, but a large catamaran. The are lots of tours similar to this one so do your research. If there isn't another option, I would still recommend this activity.
Amazing experience.

5.00Absolutely unforgettable experience! Our day tour to the private island in Fiji was pure bliss. The staff were warmly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure we felt at home. Snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters was a dream, with an incredible array of colourful fish to discover. And the BBQ feast? To die for! If you're looking for a relaxing, fun-filled day in paradise, look no further. Highly recommend!
Bula Bula Island Snorkeling!

5.00Trip was wonderful! Started with the drive from the hotel. The pick up time from Club Fiji was at 8:30 and was communicated far in advance! The driver was exactly on time, and provided a clean and comfortable ride from the hotel to the port! Arrived early and was able to check in. Bought sunscreen, and was able to do a little shopping before boarding at 10 AM. The welcoming music from Weiss and James was fun and made for a great time. Enjoyed the kava ceremony on board lead by Bale. Bathrooms were down in the galley. Nothing amazing but clean and well stocked. The Captain Nathan did a great job getting us to the Island on time and with a smooth ride. Island was great size. Loved Snorkeling! Recommend getting out early to snorkel if there’s a possibility of rain or clouds later in the afternoon. The snorkeling in the morning was at low tide, but the views of the coral were phenomenal. Was able to see several different species, the bluest starfish, a few angel fish. And even followed and viewed a ray! Overall snorkeling was very very good. The drinks were always available. And the free cabanas were worth it on the left side of the island. I was not able to utilize the paddle boards or kayaks due to the weather and rougher waters. But I was not dissatisfied. Rather spent time eating the delicious lunch and several glasses of wine! And taking a trip around the whole island, and viewed the clear blue waters and the beautiful shells that washed ashore on the beach!
