Itinerary

Tour Itinerary

Departing from Port Denarau, your first stop is... 1 hour

Departing from Port Denarau, your first stop is the breathtaking Mana Sand Bar — a remote stretch of white sand surrounded by turquoise waters in the heart of the Mamanuca Islands. Here, you’ll enjoy a guided snorkeling session just off the reef, where you can spot vibrant tropical fish and colorful corals in crystal-clear shallows. There’s also plenty of time for a relaxing swim or to capture stunning photos of this surreal and iconic location — known for its beauty and as a filming site for US Survivor. After your swim, you’ll be welcomed back on board with a light morning tea, featuring freshly made banana cake, prepared in our village and brought along for the day.

After a short 20–30 minute sail from Mana... 1 hour

After a short 20–30 minute sail from Mana Sand Bar, you’ll arrive at our second stop: the stunning Monu Cove — a deep, aquamarine inlet surrounded by volcanic rock and lush island scenery. This vibrant cove is a playground for water lovers. Guests can swim, snorkel, or for the adventurous, take part in our signature splash competition by jumping off the boat! Whether you’re belly-flopping with friends or gliding into the water for a peaceful snorkel, Monu Cove offers something for everyone. The reef here is teeming with marine life, and the deeper water makes it a favorite for confident swimmers and free divers. For those who prefer to float and soak in the view, the calm cove is the perfect place to relax and recharge before the final stop.

After a short 10-minute sail from Monu Cove,... 3 hours

After a short 10-minute sail from Monu Cove, you’ll arrive at Monuriki Island, made famous by the film Cast Away starring Tom Hanks. But for us, Monuriki is more than a movie set — it’s part of our family’s ancestral land, and we’re proud to welcome you here. Guests are escorted to shore by small boat, where you’ll enjoy an authentic Fijian Lovo lunch cooked underground in the traditional style. Served beneath the shade of our handmade bures, lunch includes chicken, smoked eggplant, root vegetables, rourou, tropical fruit, and our famous miti (coconut) sauce — all prepared with love by our family. After lunch, enjoy a calm swim or join a guided tour of the island, an easy walk across mostly flat ground with stories of local heritage and village life. For those seeking adventure, a hike to the top rewards you with sweeping ocean views.
