Everything was very lovely and special, from the moment we arrived in Denarau until the end of the cruise. Their friendliness, our wonderful welcome upon arrival, and their incredible singing and dancing at lunchtime—plus the lunch and drinks were a 10/10. It is a magical, dreamlike place, and you have to enjoy it until the very last moment.

Island was ok, boat was ok However, the boat trip is actually no more than a water taxi, and from 12.45 until 3.00 it was literally just being on-board dropping off/ picking up passengers on different islands

Went as a couple. Such a romantic spot. Staff made us feel special with a song at lunch. Would go again.

Booked the half-day tour with a couple friends. It’s a pretty packed schedule, so don’t expect to just wander off. Paddleboarding was a laugh (I fell in twice). The drinks are free flow, which is DANGEROUS in the best way. Staff sings as the boat leaves the island—super sweet touch. Bring a dry bag if you have one, my towel got soaked.

Cruise from Denarau, Wailoaloa, or Nadi to South Sea Island for a full day of island activities, lunch, and seamless transfers included.
