Amazing experience!

We had an amazing time on Sabre, special thanks to the crew for taking care of us while on board. From snorkelling, to enjoying 2 hrs of free beverages on the island, swimming (and jumping) into the beautiful blue waters, delicious food, yummy drinks, good tunes and pure fun & relaxation - highly recommend! Vinaka!

Fantastic Day Cruise – Excellent Value and a Perfect Island Escape

We had a fantastic experience on this day cruise and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Fiji. The complimentary hotel pick-up and drop-off made the day completely hassle-free. After a scenic one-hour cruise from Port Denarau, we arrived at a beautiful little island with crystal-clear waters. The package offers excellent value for money, including refreshments, a delicious lunch, and two hours of complimentary drinks. There were plenty of activities to enjoy, such as a guided snorkeling tour, kayaks, and stand-up paddleboards. If you prefer to relax, there are plenty of umbrellas on the island where you can unwind, swim, or simply soak up the tropical atmosphere. One of the highlights was the outstanding service—the staff even brought drinks directly to us while we were relaxing on the island. If you didn't want to go ashore, you also had the option of staying on board the vessel. Everything was very well organised from start to finish, the food was delicious, and the crew was friendly and attentive throughout the day. It was a fun, relaxing experience and definitely worth every dollar. I would happily do this cruise again.

Such a superb day

Fantastic experience Perfect weather, going with friends. Two hours of free beer or wine! Great food too. We sail for about one hour, then arrive at a very small island where you can snorkel, kayak, laze on the beach or stay on board on the bean bags soaking up the sun. Using the slide was really the only way to get into the water. You may want to do this more than once. The staff were very professional safety wise and then extremely talented with the entertainment on the way home.

No question, this is the whole package! A must do in Fiji.

Awesome catamaran plenty of room for everyone. Food and drinks were plentiful. High quality food. Relaxing boating to the island. Snorkeling was beautiful around the reef. A range of things to do or to do nothing but relax on the island if u wished. Was not a big touristy island small but enough for everyone on our boat to enjoy. No other crowds. Staff were very attentive and you felt in safe hands. Staff were also a lot of fun and there were plenty of laughs on the way back in. Perfect day full day out not too much you felt exhausted just right. 👍. We have done many sailing day trips over the years before but this is definitely up there with the best delivering the whole package. Picked up and taken back to hotel, well organised and super friendly. Highly recommend. 🙌

The Highlight of our Fiji trip (so far!)

AMAZING DAY! What a fabulous time with a great crew and gorgeous mosh of people on holiday and 4 “Fiji girls “ (That should be on the payroll as they really enhanced the festivities) celebrating a birthday, all were looking to have a great time! Oh we did! The boat crew was more than accommodating and very skilled at their jobs. All were made to feel welcome and by the end of the day, we were family. For our guided snorkeling tour, we were with the ships captain, Saki. You go out in groups of 10. He is very knowledgeable and made sure that we had the best views of the reef. All felt safe and cared for, even when we did our Navy Seal drop off the dinghy or jumping off the catamaran after lunch. Unnerving to think about, yet was totally fine. Pro tip: Don’t think about it! Just do it! Haha! Birthdays and Anniversaries are celebrated while returning to port with singing, cake and quickly turns into all laughing and dancing on deck. We were celebrating our anniversary and they made it unforgettable! Vanaka! Food was fantastic for both breakfast tea and lunch. If you left hungry, it’s your own fault. We found service to be exceptional and highly deserving of tipping as everyone worked really hard to ensure that everyone had a great time. Tipping is politely not mentioned, nor is the tip pot obvious on the bar. We were looking for it and almost missed it for the crew. Vanaka Saki and your amazing crew. Thank you for making our first trip to Fiji something special! We will return on future visits. Do this! It’s a highlight experience for all ages.

Recommend. Great boat and staff!

Fantastic! Excellent team, clean and well kept boat. Clean toilets, food was great! The slide was so cool. We brought our own snorkels, I did hear others comment theirs went a bit foggy as no antifog was available. So glad I brought ours as the reef was so awesome! I would recommend this to anyone it was an excellent day and experience! Topped off our last day in Fiji!

An Absolutely Perfect Day on the Water

From the minute we stepped on board, everything about this trip was exceptional. The day started with cloudy skies, but the crew's energy and hospitality immediately set the tone. We were welcomed with mimosas, a friendly introduction to the crew, and a great overview of the day that made everyone feel comfortable and excited. By the time we reached the snorkeling spot, the sun had come out and the atmosphere was perfect. Before snorkeling, we were treated to an incredible spread of fresh ham sandwiches, fruit, chai carrot cake, and delicious quiches. The crew was constantly walking around offering water and soft drinks, making sure everyone was comfortable and well looked after. One of the things we loved most was that there truly was something for everyone. You could take the easy dinghy ride to the snorkeling area, head ashore to explore the island, or simply relax on the spacious boat and soak up the sun. It never felt crowded, and there was plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the day however you wanted. Lunch exceeded every expectation. There were multiple meat and fish options, fresh bread, and a fantastic variety of salads. Everything was fresh and absolutely delicious. The included drinks around lunchtime were the perfect touch, and if you wanted something extra, the full bar had plenty of fun cocktails available to purchase. Out of everything we did in Fiji, this was hands down the highlight of our trip. The entire crew went above and beyond to make every guest feel welcome, relaxed, and taken care of. We would recommend this experience to anyone visiting Fiji without hesitation.
