Detailed Itinerary:

Day 1: Friday - Modriki Island
Bula and welcome aboard Blue Lagoon Cruises. Set sail on the Fiji Princess from Port Denarau for the outer Mamanucas. The first overnight anchorage is in a gorgeous secluded location at Modriki Island. Seen the Tom Hanks’ movie ‘Cast Away’? Tonight, that is where you are castaway.

Day 3: Sunday - Naukacuvu Island
Sunday is a day of rest in Fiji. After breakfast, attend a village church service. We cruise south to the beautiful Naukacucu and Narara Islands as you enjoy a traditional Sunday roast. Join the Chef for today’s Fijian cooking lesson and make the traditional dish ‘Kokoda’. Tonight’s buffet has a range of dishes from Fiji along with a choice of European dishes. There is Bingo ‘Fiji style’ after dinner with lots of laughs and some good prizes, or you can enjoy a quiet nightcap at the bar.

Day 4: Monday - Yalobi Bay
As Fiji Princess arrives at the stunning Sacred Isles, you’ll be sure you are lost in paradise. The backdrop of the neighbouring Waya Lailai volcanic fomations is breathtaking. Spend the remainder of the day swimming, snorkelling, relaxing. Fiji style high tea is served following a cooking lesion on how to make ‘Roti in Lolo’. Watch the sunset and enjoy the Captains’ Dinner welcoming our new 4 day cruise guest arrivals.

Day 5: Tuesday - Blue Lagoon
Our destination: the famed Blue Lagoon. This superb stretch of water is ringed by island and Blue Lagoon Cruises’ very own private island peninsula is located here. Watch as the crew position right up to the beach and tie her off to the coconut trees. Enjoy happy hour on shore with canapes. A very special night enjoying a traditional Lovo meal cooked underground, you’ll dine under the coconut palms and the tropical stars. There will be Fijian meke: singing, dancing and story telling by local villagers.

Day 6: Wednesday - Sawa-I-Lau Island
An easy guided island walk with panoramic views is offered this morning to visit an island style cake shop and browse the shell market. Laze in the sun or try your hand at basket weaving. A guided snorkelling safari is on offer today. Lunch is served on board as Fiji Princess cruises north for a private guided visit to the amazing Sawa-I-Lau caves. The village of Tamasua welcomes us to a yaqona ceremony, a guided walk around the village and a village style ‘feast’ prepared and cooked by the village women. You will be Fijian for the night, sitting on the mats, eating Fijian village food. The villagers will share their culture and home with us for the evening.

Day 7: Thursday - Drawaqa Island
Cruise to Drawaqa Island where our Marine Biologist joins us for a presentation about the local marine life and the volunteer conservation work carried out in the area. During May to October you will have the opportunity to snorkel with the magnificent manta rays. Also on offer today is an excursion to the local island school to view the work of the Vinaka Fiji Volunteers. Dinner this evening is a barbecue served under the stars. Tonight, we party Fiji style.

Day 8: Friday
An early start for the crew as unfortunately it is time to cruise for home and return to Denarau Marina. Enjoy breakfast on-board as Fiji Princess cruises back toward her home port.

All guests will be farewelled with the traditional Isa Lei song from the crew, as your exploration of the beautiful Yasawa Islands comes to an end. Vinaka vakalevu and we hope to see you again!

The small size of Blue Lagoon Cruises' cruise ship, M.V. Fiji Princess is just one of the things that makes a cruise with us so special. Accommodating up to 68 passengers and measuring only 179 feet (55 metres) in length, we can access bays and islands that would be impossible to reach in a large ship. We can get so close to shore, that we can tie off to a coconut tree and you can swim to the beach!

M.V. Fiji Princess has 34 air-conditioned cabins, accommodating up to 68 passengers. Each cabin features a private ensuite, storage space, TV/DVD system, vanity table, hair dryer, soft towels and fragrant soaps. All cabins are above the waterline and feature windows with ocean views.
