Fiji Honeymoon Itinerary: 3 Days / Weekend

How to Get Around Fiji in 3 Days

The three-day honeymoon and romance itinerary below involves minimal road travel but mostly overwater travel as you island-hop from Viti Levu (Fiji’s main island) to the Mamanuca Islands and back. Here is a quick rundown of how to get around the islands of Fiji.

Interisland Transport in Fiji

For getting between Viti Levu and the Mamanuca Islands, fast catamaran ferries have scheduled departures from Port Denarau. Alternatively, water taxis provide a more private experience that can adapt to your schedule – ideal for a honeymoon on limited time. To get back from the Mamanuca Islands, we recommend a helicopter/seaplane transfer for a special honeymoon treat. Check out 5 Ways to Get to the Mamanuca Islands for more details, plus alternative transport methods.

Road Transport in Fiji

The first day of this itinerary will require you to take road transport to Denarau Island from Nadi International Airport. This can be done by taxi, private resort transfers and even the bus. Find out more in the 5 Ways to Get to Denarau Island.

For all of your transport options across the islands, not limited to the most appropriate for couples, check out the Fiji Transport Guide: 20 Best Ways to Get Around Fiji.

Day 1 – Nadi International Airport to the Mamanuca Islands

Travel time: 20 minutes by road, 35-45 minutes by water taxi or catamaran ferry

Welcome to Fiji! Because you only have three days, we recommend getting out of Nadi soon after landing and start making your way to a more romantic setting, the Mamanuca Islands. The Mamanucas is a group of 20-something islands scattered across reef-filled waters. Each island is small, either with an interior of coconut palms or an ancient volcanic peak. Across many of these idyllic islands are resorts to suit all budgets, whether you’re looking for a down-to-earth adventure at a backpacker resort or absolute luxury in an adults-only retreat. Check out your options below for where to spend the next two nights in the Mamanuca Islands.

Dining Recommendations

For an unforgettable dining experience, indulge at your chosen resort tonight. Several top-tier resorts offer unique culinary adventures, such as Tokoriki Island Resort‘s trips to Monu Island for snorkelling and a Champagne picnic, Likuliku Lagoon Resort‘s similar experience on private Mociu Island, and Tadrai Island Resort‘s secluded island picnics. For exceptional on-site dining, try the Fijiana Restaurant at Likuliku Lagoon (where you can order via their in-house app), the Tokoriki Menu at Tokoriki Island Resort, or Tovolea at the Six Senses Resort.

Day 2 – Relax in the 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?

You have another night to experience the culinary delights of your chosen luxury resort.

Day 3 – Mamanuca Islands to Nadi International Airport

Travel time: 10-15 minutes

This is the moment when you realise that you should have spent way more time in Fiji! Nevertheless, bring your Fiji honeymoon or romantic getaway to a special end by embarking on an intimate helicopter or seaplane flight over the Mamanuca Islands. There’s nothing like seeing the small islands and vast coral reefs decorating the ocean from a birds-eye view. Your flight will take you directly to Nadi International Airport, where you can catch your flight out of Fiji with ease.

Remember to arrive at Nadi Airport a couple of hours before your scheduled departure so you have enough time to check in, go through security and browse the duty-free. For a full rundown of what to expect, take a look at Leaving Fiji: Departure Tips & Checklist.

And it’s “sota tale” from Fiji and “bula!” to the rest of your lives together!
