5.00This was one of our favourite experiences in Fiji, we have done many snorkel tours around the world & this is probably the best all rounder. The boat is a generous size for the amount of people & crew on board mind you we had a full house. Very clean & comfortable for the cruise to our snorkel locations & island stop. Really good value for money, lunch provided was surprisingly very good with plenty of snacks throughout the day with even a cheeky dessert brownie. Unlimited beer, wine & soft drinks provided & even brought over to the private island beach for us to enjoy while we lazed about to some tunes & enjoyed some water activities with toilet amenities as well on the island & of course on the boat. The crew even ferried some of the passengers back to the boat by kayak if you weren’t up for the swim back to the boat from the island. Being a half day cruise all up it was about 5.5 hours from when we left port til our return & we felt that it was the sweet spot to have enough time to snorkel & enjoy the island without feeling like the day was dragging on. The best part definitely has to be the crew entertaining us back to port with some island songs, some interactive games & good old Fiji humour. All up this was a 5 star experience & would definitely recommend. Vinaka!
Great day trip!

5.00Our whole family loved this snorkeling tour, it was a highlight of our holiday to Fiji. The crew were so friendly and welcoming, the snorkeling was some of the best we have done and the slide was a bit of extra fun for the kids!
Great half day out

5.00We had a fantastic time on this trip, it exceeded our expectations. The crew were lovely and we enjoyed learning out the other islands throughout the day. We took our own towels with us as we had seen they weren’t provided. As others have mentioned the slide is only up at one snorkelling location so make the most of it while you can. We spent an hour at the first snorkelling location with the slide so plenty of time! Was pleasantly surprised when we were offered beer and wine as a beverage choice. The light lunch was generous and we had chips and brownie for afternoon tea. All three of us thoroughly enjoyed our trip and would highly recommend this tour!

5.00This is by far my favourite trip in multiple visits to Fiji, so much fun. Not too long, no waiting around, straight to beautiful snorkelling locations with amazing fish and coral. Staff were supportive of all levels of competence in the water and the slide was fun for 8 to 80 year olds :)
The best adventure!!!

5.00This was the best trip for our time in Fiji. Staff was incredible. Very friendly and professional. Helped us with the snorkeling and even made sure we were safely to the sand bar. We even feed the fish out of our hands. Weather was great. Food was good. Even gave us dessert and a snack on the way back. Highly recommend this tour.
Great crews and nice snorkeling

5.00The crew was super friendly (as almost all Fijiians are to us). The half-day boat ride with two stops for snorkeling (including one with the slide inflated) was a perfect afternoon and a great way to experience the water, islands and sandbars away from the Nadi shore. This was a perfect activity for a hot summer afternoon.
