I tried to enjoy a tropical resort at a remote island 'South Sea Island' one hour from Fiji's Nadi airport

If you visit Fiji in Tropic, you definitely want to experience the beautiful ocean of the remote island, but you may not be able to give up on the isolated island ...... with no time. If it is a tight schedule for a day, it is actually possible to enjoy a tropical resort snugly at a remote island. From the empty gateway "Nadi International Airport", I took a day trip to a remote island " South Sea Island " in an hour using a bus and a ferry and tried it in a resort feeling.

◆ Move to the marina - When you booked the tour, it was in front of the supermarket near the hotel that you are staying at a distance of 15 minutes by car from Nadi International Airport as the meeting point for the shuttle bus. Of course it is also possible to get a bus from the airport in the morning.

However, the bus will not come after the meeting time "8 o'clock".

At last it seemed like a large bus arrived.

20 minutes late. Besides, we are about to depart immediately. The bus was pretty bad, I did not check the people to board, so I had to appeal "South Sea Cruise Ride!" Firmly.

I ran for 15 minutes and arrived at Port Terminal "Port Denarau Marina" on Denarau Island.

When entering the terminal ......

Because there is a counter, I will tell you that I will participate in a one day tour of South Sea Cruise. I got a reservation email and it was ok.

◆ Ship - Inside the marina is like this. The ship is anchored everywhere.

Look for the specified ship "Tiger V".

Boarding

There was a seat on the back of the boat.

Go down the stairs to the first floor.

The first floor is like this. The seat is also firm and there is no wind so if you are worried about seasickness the first floor looks good.

On the other hand, the second floor of the ship looks like this. When importance is attached to "exhilaration", it is definitely recommended that the second floor deck with no roof is decked.

People who lie down and wait for sailing.

It was 9 o'clock of the departure time and the boat left the harbor.

The weather is nice and the sea is calm.

An explanation of how to use the life jacket began immediately. In addition, the life jacket was for emergency purposes only and was never used.

I am going to the sea while watching the luxury resort / villa of Denarau Island.

I could see the island in less than 30 minutes.

"South Sea Island" is a small island that you can easily walk around the island.

Many people shoot the island. The boat cruises from nearby island in order, so people heading to another island such as Mana Island will wait as it is.

◆ Landing - a fatal mistake that you are mad about taking pictures, you miss the ship for landing.

The staff of the nice guy laughed a separate meal while laughing "I was bad, no choice." Of course, it is a state of reservation.

"Nice guys" and returning nice guys. It was an explosion, so it was a bonus that you can land earlier than other passengers.

So, regular flights arrived.

We are going to the square for the time being.

"Everyone, they got together quickly"

There was a signboard on the plaza that wrote the schedule for that day. Schedule is written in English · Chinese · Korean · Japanese.

The South Sea Cruise staff tells the island's explanation and notes with a humorous "skit".

Free conversation OK when the joint guidance is over. First, get a drink, go to the building.

Soft drinks and alcohol are all you can drink.

There is also a hot drink such as coffee and tea.

Because I got a drink, I secured a place to relax.

There are many sunny bench seats on the beach.

There is also a hammock.

While keeping on, we secured a bench with a tree at the edge of the beach.

Mobile communication OK on the island. It was a comfortable mobile environment as digicel 's prepaid SIM card speeds more than 10 Mbps.

◆ Explore the island around the island - the beach is really calm without waves. For the time being, in order to confirm the facility, I decided to walk around the island.

A beach volleyball court. A game will be held in the evening.

This is a scuba diving booth.

Life jacket is slippery.

A woman came back from diving. Apparently it seemed to be a one-on-one fan dive with the guide.

Even if diving can not be done, you can borrow a snorkel set for free.

Of course you can borrow life jackets, too.

South Sea Island was abundant in coral, and we could observe tropical fish even in snorkel.

There is a pool in the child whose sea is a little ...... Also you can practice snorkel at the pool.

"Kids Club" where small children can be deposited ... ...

"Massage room" is also available.

20 minutes 50 The massage from Fiji dollar (about 2500 yen) was a special seat in front of the beach.

When entering the biggest building ... ...

There was a bar counter where you can order a cocktail.

Ali is relaxing at the sofa to avoid the sun and relax.

The building also had a toilet.

Outside the building there was also a souvenir corner.

The back side of the beautiful beach is coarse and sandy, but no one is there, but you can taste the feeling "uninhabited alone on a desert island", so it might be a surprising hole.

So when you observe the whole island with the dragon, it looks like this.

◆ Since semi-submersible boat tour "semi-submersible boat tour" is held, I tried it.

I will head by boat to the submarine floating near the island.

It is 3 minutes to the submarine.

I will get on at once.

There was a bucket just before getting on the submarine, and it was the rule to drop sand of sandals.

Inside is quite narrow with such feeling.

I was clogged tightly.

Start moving.

You can see small fish by the coral.

Not as clearly as snorkel can see coral and fish, even people who can not swim at all could safely observe the state of the sea.

When I return to the island in about 20 minutes ......

A second welcome ceremony took place.

◆ Lunch
Barbecue lunch starts from 11:30.

It is a buffet format that separates favorite dishes to the plate.

Freshly baked meat was offered.

Be careful not to watch out because it will serve a tremendous amount of meat.

Under the sun, the taste of barbecue to eat on a small isolated island was exceptional.

In addition, Fijian will show off music on the way.

The seats where you can see songs and dances in front of you is here.

Men with flowers on their ears ......

Photographer. At the end of the meal, a commemorative photo session was held with the fizzy men of Fijian.

◆ Relaxingly, chilling - time is slow in the small South Sea Island where you can go around for as long as 10 minutes walking, unlike everyday life. It is ant to look at the sea leisurely without swimming or exploring.

Small birds will come occasionally.

You can see the Viti Levu island of Fiji a little in the distance. A beautiful ocean is spreading to the northernmost of Nadi International Airport in the empty gateway.

People exploring shallows.

A girl who enjoys dad and snorkel.

A boy with a frolic canoe.

Hiding and hiding in the shade.

If you enjoy leisurely tropical resort feeling, it is reception that you can refresh your body and mind.

◆ To the port terminal again Ship picked up arrived around 4:45 a little earlier than planned.

I got off the boat first, but on the way home I get on the boat. If you want to fully enjoy the remote island tour, not going to a relatively distant island such as Mana Island, but an ant going to a near island. Of course, there is no doubt that the sea is beautiful as far away as the island, but it may be better to keep in mind that staying time is a tradeoff.

I came back to Port · Denarau · Marina. Although I would like to be immersed in the aftershock of the remote island, I should get off the ship in a hurry.

That's because of the shuttle bus on the way back. As the bus leaves when it is full, it is a point to leave the harbor as quickly as possible.

The solitary island "South Seas Island" visited this time is a one-day cruise tour by South Sea Cruise is 209 Fiji dollar (about 11,000 yen), tour fee includes transfer from near hotel by bus, snorkel rental , Semi-submersible boat tour, and barbecue lunch were all included.
