Full, Half, Family & Combo Cruises
South Sea Island is one of the treasures of the Mamanuca Islands. Crystal clear waters, coral reefs and thousands of colourful tropical fish surround this tiny island.
South Sea Island is Fiji’s most popular day cruise island and is an easy 30-minute high-speed catamaran ride with South Sea Cruises from Port Denarau. Being so close to Denarau means you can make the most of the day lazing on the beach, snorkelling, diving and enjoying the many activities on offer.
It may be small in size, but there is plenty to keep you entertained with a semi-submersible submarine for underwater viewing, a salt water swimming pool and the use of all non-motorised water sports equipment such as snorkelling gear, stand up paddle boards and kayaks which are available free of charge.
Overnight guests can choose to stay in our 16 bed unisex dorm, 6 bed Girls only dorm, Lodge Room or in one of the three Beachfront Bures with private outdoor bathrooms.
Discover the underwater world with hours of snorkelling or if you want to stay dry, jump onboard the semi-submersible coral viewer. Make sure you keep an eye out for Nemo!
Introductory diving is a particular focus on this island with pretty reef formations and plentiful fish making it a first time diver’s dream. Start in the shallows and then explore the stunning coral gardens and the fish life surrounding the island on a ‘Discover Scuba’ intro dive.
There is also plenty to keep certified divers amused, with several beach dives and a purposefully sunk shipwreck. Diving in this area you can encounter drop offs and wall dives with lots of hard corals, crystal clear water & large schools of pelagic fish.
Although the island is uninhabited, you can still get a taste of Fijian culture with a traditional Meke performance and craft market Monday to Saturday.
