What an awesome day out! Totally recommend this trip to anyone (those with mobility issues will be challenged however). Friendly, professional team welcomes you on board their catamaran (seats about 32) with guitar and singing. 90 minute cruise to Savala Island with morning tea en route (soft drinks, tea/coffee, fruit cake, coconut biscuits). Up to 10 people can sit up front on the nets which is great fun (can get wet). At Savala a small tender takes you ashore. Crew is on hand to assist but as mentioned earlier, this transfer could be problematic for the elderly or those with mobility issues. 2 warriors in traditional garb greet you (photo op) and you make your way up the sandy beach to the main facilities (open air dining room with picnic bench seatings, kitchen, flush toilet & out door fresh water showers). Plenty of sun lounges, a hammock, outdoor picnic tables. Snorkelling gear as well as paddle boards & sea kayaks are available to use. Lunch is a basic (but generous) BBQ buffet with potato & egg salad, green salad, chop suey-type of noodles, chicken, sausages and lamb chops. Cut up Tropical fruit and Fruit juice also. Open bar serves red & white wine, beer and soft drinks. You are encouraged to come back for seconds (or thirds) and it was most satisfying. This really is a wonderful day trip to an amazing destination. Lots of fish, other sea life & coral to see when snorkelling or out in glass bottom boat

From the time you are welcomed onboard (with song) to the time you are farewelled (with song) you realise you are in for authentic Fijian hospitality. The 90 minute boat ride to the island passes quickly and once you arrive you can go snorkelling, sun bathe, sea kayak, paddle board or ride in the glass bottom boat. Lunch is a basic but delicious buffet with plenty of food for even the most ravenous appetite. If there is a birthday or anniversary expect to celebrate with your new “family” with song and sincere best wishes. Recommend to all ages although those with physical mobility issues will be challenged when transferring from the catamaran to the tender and again from tender to stones beach. Would do it again in a heartbeat & recommend to families. NB FJ$15 fuel surcharge per person payable before departure
