Getting around by boat and ferry Fiji

This small, family-run and very professional company makes it easy for you to transfer from one island to another. They operate specifically in the Yasawa, because it is in this place that they are based (and from which they originate) but can intervene everywhere in the Mamanuca also. We strongly recommend!

SeaFiji is a water cab company operating from the port of Denarau, serving the Mamanucas and Yasawas. Prices are set on request. This can be convenient when your international flight arrives or departs very early or very late and schedules are not compatible with the traditional ferries operated by South Sea Cruises. The other option is to spend a night in Nadi before taking the traditional ferry to Mamanucas or Yasawas.

These are the largest boat transfer operators. They're more like ferries, very comfortable and fast. The pier is located in Port Denarau, where, depending on your destination, you'll have to queue for tickets before boarding. They serve most of the Mamanucas and Yasawas islands. South Sea Cruises also offers the " Ultimate Encounters: Snorkels with Sharks " for F$365 per adult and F$235 per child. Immerse yourself in the natural environment of the ocean's fascinating predators: adrenalin rush guaranteed!

For Fiji, the Viaferry website redirects you to www.fiji-bookings.com, which contains all the information you need on boat crossings to the Yasawas and Mamanucas archipelagos. The site also features a host of day activities, the main ones offered by local tour operators. As a bonus, there's plenty of information on the various diving sites in Fiji. In conclusion, a very complete website to prepare your trip to Fiji, we warmly recommend!

Interlink is the most reputed company for maritime connections between the different islands. Their Facebook page provides information on the various itineraries. It's not always easy to find your way around, and you don't really get much feedback if you have any questions, so the easiest thing to do is to go directly to the sales outlets and get information on the spot.
