Sail and snorkel the idyllic Fiji Islands

Fiji

Beach in Fiji

Even if you spend all your time on the mainland, it doesn’t mean you can’t experience some island magic from Port Denarau. Take a day trip sailing experience through Fiji’s beautiful Mamanuca Islands enjoying awesome food and great hospitality aboard the catamaran ‘Sabre’.

Snorkel coral reefs, take a short boat ride to the sand bar, enjoy a drink, and dance the macarena on the return home knowing even the shy ones will be up singing and dancing. Each day’s itinerary is different, creating a unique experience every day.

Why I Love Travel

The places I see and the people I meet—travel truly is the best way to broaden the mind. It allows you to experience and learn from different cultures and walks of life. Life is short; travel often.


My Travel Tips

  • If you are always early, you are never late.
  • Pre-book as much as possible before departure and schedule rest days on longer trips.
  • Live courageously—100% of the opportunities you don’t take are missed.


My Top Three Favourite Destinations

Italy
The food, history, people, dramatic coastlines, and mountains—Italy deserves a place on everyone’s bucket list.


USA
With its extraordinary diversity of cultures and experiences, you could spend a lifetime exploring the United States and still not see it all.


Patagonia
Challenging to reach, but the dramatic landscapes that greet you make every moment of the journey worthwhile.


What’s in My Suitcase
