What are people saying about Tivua Island

Excellent!
The crew on this ship made you feel like family. This was so much better than I could have imagined. From the welcoming kava ceremony, feeling like I was treated like family, an amazing first time scuba diving, a delicious lunch, thoughtfully planned activities that highlighted the culture of Fiji, a beautiful island, and seeing the care they took for those traveling with small children. This experience made for life long memories, thank you!

Excellent crew, short excursion
Nice but shorter than expected. The return boat was at 2:45 pm, even though the description said it was a full-day trip. The last activity was supposed to be at 3 pm. We didn't have access to the included beach sports (kayaking, paddleboarding) because it wasn't safe, nor the glass-bottom boat tour. The food was good, and the crew was excellent—fun and attentive.

Amazing experience, the staff were so friendly and helpful. Great snorkelling and scuba experience, good food and a beautiful island to visit.

Day cruise & sunset cruise combo...
We did the combo: day cruise to the island, sunset cruise. We left Port Denarau when the tide was starting to go out. We took a launch out to the boat. Footing was precarious trying to get from the launch to the larger boat. By the time we got to the island the tide was already quite far out. To get to even waist deep water was quite a distance from shore, over the boulders under the water. The footing was very unsafe. We both fell in the water, onto the boulders, while navigating to the higher water. We finally gave up and just sat on the chairs in the shade. We never got to snorkel after we brought all our snorkel equipment from the US to Fiji in our suitcases. The tour had lunch prepared for us and it was good. When leaving the island, we had to walk about 15 minutes to the other side of the island, due to low tide, with all our gear, to get to the launch. Walking to the launch we were in near waist deep water. Once we got back to Port Denarau we got off the boat. We waited on the pier for about 15 minutes for the dinner cruise to board. Once on board the dinner was good, as was the entertainment. That was the only saving grace of this part of the excursion. Overall, the experience was unacceptable. This seems like somewhat haphazard organization and execution for a company that has supposedly been doing this for years.
