Yasawa paradise 🇫🇯

Seven days of pure Fiji: we fly into Nadi, board the Yasawa Flyer catamaran and sail deep into the Yasawa Islands — a chain of remote tropical islands with white beaches, turquoise lagoons and villages where time moves differently. Six nights, three islands, two nights each, working our way back down the chain. Professional pictures and videos of the group are included. On request: a full week private photo package.

This is the paradise expedition: swim in the Blue Lagoon, drift through the Sawa-i-Lau caves, snorkel with manta rays in the channel, share kava with a local village, and finish with one of the best shark dives on the planet: face to face with bull sharks off Kuata. It pairs perfectly with Whales of Tonga, which finishes the day before this expedition begins. Max 8 guests. If you’re someone who seeks more than just a holiday, someone who values meaningful experiences, genuine connections, and a sense of adventure, then this expedition is for you. We’re looking for open-minded, positive, and curious individuals who enjoy being part of a small, like-minded group and are excited to share unforgettable moments both in and out of the water. You don’t need to be an expert, but you should feel comfortable in the ocean, be willing to participate in group activities, and embrace the rhythm of island life. We expect everyone to be respectful of nature and contribute to a warm, inclusive group dynamic.

✕ International flights, travel insurance, a night in Nadi if you arrive a day early, the optional photo package, alcoholic drinks and personal expenses (souvenirs and tips).

Most important: arrive in Nadi 1 day early (highly recommended), or very early on the day. We board the Yasawa Flyer at Port Denarau and cruise the full length of the island chain to our first base in the northern Yasawas. Feet in the sand by sunset.

Two days in the postcard north: swim the famous Blue Lagoon, snorkel coral gardens, and drift through the limestone chambers of the Sawa-i-Lau caves. Village visit and a welcome kava ceremony with our hosts.

We hop south to the middle of the chain, where manta rays feed in the channel between the islands. Mornings in the water with mantas, afternoons of reef snorkeling and hammock time.

Our final island is Kuata, home to one of the world's great shark dives: bull sharks, up close, guided by Fiji's most experienced shark team. Certified divers do the full dive; everyone else can join an intro dive or watch the briefing and surface action. Farewell lovo dinner on the beach.

One last swim, then the Yasawa Flyer brings us back to Port Denarau by afternoon — perfectly timed for evening flights out of Nadi.

Certified divers join the full bull shark dive. If you're not certified, you can do an included introductory dive with an instructor, or experience the sharks from the surface. Every other activity on this expedition is snorkeling, no license needed.

By the Yasawa Flyer, the iconic yellow catamaran that runs the island chain daily. We ride it deep into the north on day one and hop our way back south — no tiny planes, no repacking stress, just island time.

Yes, that's the idea. Whales of Tonga ends on September 24th and this expedition starts September 25th. Fly Tonga → Nadi and roll straight from humpbacks into paradise. Tonga guests pay €3.450 for this expedition instead of €3.950, and booking both saves another €300: €10.100 in total. The flight and the night in Nadi in between are yours to arrange and pay for. Reach out if you'd like more information about the routes that work.

Yes. Professional pictures and videos of the group are included. On request: a full week private photo package, just for you.

If you want to spend as much time as possible in the water with the wildlife, we're your best option. We work with the best local guides, and if you love taking pictures or being in them, for Instagram or just for yourself, you're in exactly the right place.
