Wednesday
Nanuyakoto, Nananu-l-ra Today we venture beyond the Yasawa Islands to the north coast of Viti Levu with fabulous views of the main island, plus two island stopovers for some sun, sand and snorkelling. A fabulous day to relax into your Fiji adventure and to fully explore all the facilities of your own small cruise ship. Meet your fellow passengers and Ship's Officers for pre-dinner cocktails in the Ra Marama Lounge with music on the Baby Grand. In the evening join the fun of our popular shipboard Crab Races.
Thursday
Levuka This morning we arrive at the port of Levuka on the island Ovalau, situated off the northeast coast of the main island. Levuka was the first European settlement in Fiji and became the centre of British colonial administration and trade. At its peak over 50 hotels catered to the thirst of sailors in port and the town gained a wild reputation. In 1888 the capital was moved to Suva on the main island, and Levuka's notoriety gradually waned. Passengers are invited to join an optional tour of this now quiet historic town with its stately backdrop of 19th Century colonial architecture and waterfront promenades. In the afternoon we visit the children of Marist Convent Primary School.
Friday
Savusavu This morning we arrive in Savusavu, the second town on the second biggest island in Fiji, Vanua Levu. Savusavu is positioned on an extinct volcanic crater. Choose from a selection of optional tours including a visit to the hot water springs, pearl farm and markets. Later this afternoon we cruise to a swimming beach in Savusavu Bay.
Saturday
Taveuni Vessel at anchor today. Take an optional bus tour to the beautiful Bouma Waterfall where you can swim and relax in the beautiful setting which then continues onto the Naselesele Village where you can visit the local handicraft markets. Tonight enjoy the tastes of Fiji with a traditional "lovo" (earth oven) feast where we share fresh local seafood, meat and succulent tropical fruits. Then dance to the drum of the meke (dance) and kava ceremony.
Sunday
Waiyevo & Dateline For an experience not to be missed, join the special choral local church service at Waiyevo on the western side of Taveuni. Taveuni Island lies on the 180th Meridian, the arbitrary line between today and tomorrow. After the service our crew will take you to the famous Dateline Meridien where you can literally stand with one foot in the past and one foot in the future. Late morning we depart for our scenic cruise along the south west coast of Vanua Levu navigating Bligh Water.
Monday
Sali Sali Island, Mystery Island Cruising south west from Vanua Levu we arrive at Sali Sali Island on the northern side of Viti Levu for our customary swim, snorkel and beachcombing. A lazy morning to enjoy our last beach visit before we reboard for lunch and our homeward journey, with an afternoon stopover at a mystery island (time permitting). This evening don your sulu (sarong) and join all the celebrations of our Pacific Island Night Finale. Pre-dinner cocktails and appetisers are served in the Fa Marama Lounge before our gala farewell dinner featuring the music and dance of the South Pacific.
