Day 1 – Nadi International Airport to Denarau Island

Travel Time: 20 minutes

Welcome to Fiji! Before you start your first week of island-hopping, we recommend getting over your flight at one of the fabulous five-star resorts on Denarau Island. The manmade island connected to Fiji’s mainland is a mere 20 minutes away from the airport, so you’ll be transitioning into “Fiji time” in no time. Each resort is connected by a walkway or the hop-on hop-off “Bula Bus” making resort-hopping a fun thing to do. You could also relax by the pool, perhaps treat yourself to a couples’ massage, and more following our recommendations below!

Romantic Activities on Denarau Island

• Go on a romantic island excursion to the Malamala Beach Club (more info on Viator and Tripadvisor)
• Indulge in a couple’s jet lag massage
• Treat her to a romantic dinner at a private waterfront table
• Take a private cruise to a secret snorkelling spot
• Spend the afternoon in one of the adult-only complexes of a five-star resort

For more information on each of these activities, see our 10 Romantic Activities in Denarau for Couples.

Day 2 – Denarau Island to the Mamanuca Islands

Travel time: 35-45 minutes by water taxi or catamaran ferry

It’s time to leave the little bubble of Denarau Island behind and start discovering some of the idyllic islands that you came to Fiji to see. The Mamanuca Islands is a group of 20-something islands scattered across turquoise waters. Each island is small, either with an interior of swaying coconut palms or with an ancient volcanic peak. There’s an island resort in the Mamanucas to suit all honeymoon budgets, whether you’re looking for a down-to-earth adventure in a backpacker resort or absolute luxury in an adult-only retreat. Check out your options below and relax for your first night on the Mamanuca Islands.

Day 3 – Mamanuca Islands

The Mamanucas make a beautiful setting for romance with its glistening waters, soft sands and balmy ocean breeze. Complimentary activities like stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking or hiking make an intimate way to explore your surroundings – just the two of you. Or how about treating yourselves to a special experience like a secluded beach picnic where your resort will organise transport and a gourmet lunch to take with you. Or for more active couples, how about strengthening your bond by learning a new skill together, such as scuba diving? PADI Open Water courses take 3-4 days to complete and can be transferred to another PADI dive centre (of which there are many in Fiji) if you don’t finish it during your stay in the Mamanucas.

Day 4 – Mamanuca Islands

You have one final day in the Mamanucas to enjoy the experiences you haven’t yet had time to do, whether it be a trip to the Cloud 9 floating pizza bar (more info on Viator and Tripadvisor) or a dolphin watching cruise? The Mamanuca Islands has so much to offer, so take a look at 10 Must-Dos in the Mamanuca Islands, as well as The Wedding & Honeymoon Guide to the Mamanuca Islands for more ideas on what to do for your last day.

Day 5 – Mamanuca Islands to the Yasawa Islands

Travel time: 1h15min-3h45min

This morning, hop back on your water taxi or the South Sea Cruises ferry (on Viator and Tripadvisor) to your next destination: the remote Yasawa Islands. You’ll notice how the islands are slightly larger with more dramatic scenery here where resorts and Fijian villages often share the same island, so immersing in the Fijian culture is effortless. Get settled into your Yasawa Islands resort. Again, there’s a real mix of affordable resorts with utterly romantic “honeymoon bures” to luxurious private island resorts.

Day 6 – Yasawa Islands

You’ll be glad to spend an extra day in the paradise islands of the Yasawas. There are a few natural attractions well worth hopping on a boat trip for, from the azure waters of the Blue Lagoon to the amazing limestone features of the Sawa-i-Lau Caves. Or, if you’re looking for something more private and romantic, check out the list below or take a look at the Wedding & Honeymoon Guide to the Yasawa Islands.

Romantic Activities in the Yasawa Islands

• Indulge in a beachfront couple’s massage

Day 7 – Yasawa Islands to Nadi

Travel time: 35 minutes

Arrive back on the mainland with an intimate helicopter or seaplane flight over the Yasawa and the Mamanuca Islands. There’s nothing like seeing the islands and coral reefs decorating the ocean from above – a special experience to share with your loved one. After landing back in Nadi, now’s a good time to pick up your car rental for the next portion of your trip: exploring Viti Levu. If you have more time to spare in Nadi, here are a few activity suggestions…

Day 8 – Nadi to the Suncoast

Travel time: 30 minutes to 3 hours depending on where you stay

It’s time to hit the road and enjoy a self-drive tour of Fiji’s mainland, Viti Levu. Today, you’ll be exploring the Suncoast, the northern region of Viti Levu which spans between Lautoka and Korovou. The heart of the Suncoast is Rakiraki, home to a number of relaxed four-star resorts, upmarket hotels and even a private island resort. On your way through the Suncoast, check out the markets in Lautoka, stop by architectural sights like the Church of the Black Christ, or even take a special trip to the Navala Village with traditional “bures”.

Day 9 – Suncoast

It’s time to do a little more exploring of the Suncoast, whether it’s snorkelling or scuba diving at some of the amazing outer coral reefs of the Bligh Water or sticking to land with a romantic experience like a private dinner on the pontoon of the luxury Dolphin Island. There are ways to relax, perhaps with another couples’ massage (yes, they can get pretty addictive) or with a day trek into the stunning interior of Viti Levu visiting villages and waterfalls with Talanoa Treks. Here are some more suggestions…

At Wailotua Village, ask for a guide to see the Snake God Cave with amazing limestone formations. Stop by Takalana Bay Retreat for one of their amazing dolphin cruises at the Moon Reef. When you arrive in Suva, you might want to check out the Fiji Museum, check out the Municipal Market and try the array of international cuisine. In terms of romantic experiences, the offering in Suva isn’t huge, but here are some ideas…

Day 11 – Suva to the Pacific Harbour

Travel time: 40 minutes

There’s so much to do on the Pacific Harbour and Beqa Island that we recommend leaving Suva early to fit in a couple of full days of experiences. The Pacific Harbour is known as Fiji’s “Adventure Capital” with white water rafting, jet boat tours, ziplining, shark diving and more! If you’re adventure-seekers then you’ll fill up your time here no problem. Otherwise, there are certainly more excuses to lounge with a cocktail in hand, get a massage or go on a sunset cruise.
