Snorkelling & Diving in Fiji: The 13 Best Trips

13 reviewed

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 94 reviews · from $52Best value

Half day cruise from Denarau to South Sea Island in Fiji for snorkeling, kayaking, and Nemo clownfish viewing, with island drinks.

“This cruise is way too short - you leave at 9 get to the island at 9.30 by the time you find shelter get settled it’s 9.45 and they start hassling you to pack up at 10.45 . It’s a bit misleading saying half day and very expensive for such a short time on the island . We loved the island but this trip is not the right choice for the money”
