Port of Call - Denarau
Although there are 332 to choose from, Denarau Island is perhaps the most popular of the Fiji Islands.
Regarded as the gateway to the incredible Mamanuca and Yasawa volcanic islands, it boasts gorgeous turquoise waters, pure white sand and an incredible array of marine life.
One of the best things about this glorious island is that it´s very close to several of the smaller islands in Fiji. This makes it easy to spend a day exploring them, swimming, sunbaking, snorkeling and catching up on some "me" time.
If you are a keen golfer, this will be the perfect destination for you, with the Denarau Golf and Racquet Club offering a challenging course overlooking the island and the incredible views that surround it.
