Gorgeous little South Sea Island is one of the treasures of the Mamanuca Islands. Crystal clear waters, coral reefs and thousands of colourful tropical fish surround the tiny island.

This fantastic cruise means you'll get to explore one of Fiji's cutest Mamanuca Islands and get into 'island time'.

5.00We went on the half day trip, it was perfect amount of time on the island. Arrive and received a beautiful BBQ and salad for lunch, following by a traditional song and dance. Snorkelled, went paddle boarding, swam in the pool, slept in the sun in the hammocks, free drinks all day, and watched the sun set. Such a beautiful island. I would definitely recommend.

4.00The kids club was really just a sandbox with toys. We enjoyed the semi-submersible, the pool, and beach time. The sand is gritty/grainy-not smooth, so we were glad for our water shoes. The bar and food were good and the entertainment during lunch was fun. The boat was PACKED FULL on the last boat home, and I don’t think everyone got a seat.
Transport infrastructure,...

3.00Transport infrastructure, or lack of, meant long travel time to and from Port Denarau. On our return journey our driver dropped us off on opposite of pickup point - no traffic lights to cross in the dark - very dangerous.
