Your unforgettable 7-night Fly, Stay & Cruise holiday begins with a scenic helicopter flight over the azure waters of the Mamanuca Islands arriving in style to the amazing Castaway Island Fiji Resort where you will spend 4 incredible nights. Here you can ease into holiday mode and soak up the warm hospitality that Fiji is famous for. Think cocktails by the pool, a massage or treatment at the spa and watching sunsets dip beneath the horizon.
Next, it is time to board MV Reef Endeavour personally arriving directly to the resort to collect and whisk you away to spend the next 3 nights sailing turquoise waters to pristine white sand beaches where one can escape the heat in the shade of swaying palm fronds. Off the ship, you can snorkel fringing coral reefs teeming with life in crystal clear water, visit traditional villages and experience authentic ceremonies while onboard be treated to fully catered buffets and 3-course meals served against stunning backdrops of incredible scenery. You also have the choice of relaxing on the sundeck by the pool, visiting the spa or perhaps visit the onboard PADI Dive Centre to organise the dive of a life time through caves, coral bommies, and breathtaking coral gardens. The hardest part will be deciding what to do.
Upgrades are available upon request at an additional cost. Ask one of our Travel Experts when enquiring for more information.
