Day 3 – Denarau Island to the Mamanuca Islands

Travel time: 35-45 minutes

Denarau Island is kind of in its own little bubble, but now it’s time to see the real Fiji starting with the 20-something islands peppering the azure waters of the Mamanuca Group. Take one of the fast catamaran ferries or private water taxis to your chosen luxury island resort where guests have complimentary use of kayaks, paddleboards, snorkelling equipment, sailing boats and more to use until your heart’s content.

Day 4 – Mamanuca Islands

Chances are, you didn’t have time to do everything on your Mamanuca Islands’ bucket list so far, so now’s your chance to make up for it. Additionally, why not treat yourself to a scuba diving trip to see why they call Fiji the “Soft Coral Capital”? If you’re a keen surfer, some of the best reef breaks in Fiji are right here in the Mamanucas – see 8 Best Surf Resorts in the Mamanuca Islands for the best resorts for surfing. If you want to take it easy, why not take a boat trip to the Cloud 9 bar, a floating pizza bar over the Ro Ro Reef? Find out more about the bar on Viator and Tripadvisor.

Day 6 – Yasawa Islands

You’ll be glad to spend an extra day on these paradise islands.
