About

We first visited the remote Yasawa Islands as travellers ourselves aboard small and simple longboats in the 1990’s, at which time the journey to these islands was, let’s just say ‘adventurous’.

The remote, untouched beauty of the land and the warmth of the people encouraged us (South Sea Cruises Group) to start Yasawa Adventures Fiji, previously known as Awesome Adventures Fiji.

We worked closely with local villagers to enable our maiden passenger voyage in 2002, opening these spectacular islands to travellers from around the globe.

Fiji's islands - our playground

Fiji is home to 333 islands set on crystal-clear waters in the South Pacific. The palm-fringed white sandy beaches, tempting lagoons and colourful reefs are what tropical island dreams are made of.

Set off the western coast of the main island, the Yasawa Islands group is a chain of 20 ancient islands which are rugged, remote and undoubtedly one of the most stunning regions in Fiji.

In the southern Yasawa Islands of Kuata and Waya Lailai, the dramatic elevations, honeycomb rock formations and summits just short of 600 metres above sea level provide a dramatic introduction. The pristine beaches and stunning outlook are a great place to relax or enjoy the many activities on offer including snorkelling with sharks.

As you get further north, the volcanic scene gives way to the azure lagoons and white sandy beaches of the famous Blue Lagoon which truly is a ‘bucket list’ location.

Island Villages

Many of the islands we take you to are home to traditional Fijian villages, which hold true to the colourful, culture and traditions practiced by their ancestors some 3,000 years ago.

The culture is particularly evident at many of the resorts where you’ll be welcome to participate in traditional rituals such as the meke (link to activities page) and kava ceremonies (link to activities page) or take a tour through a local village.

Giving Back

We have a strong relationship with the people of the Yasawa Islands and know how lucky we are to be welcomed into their amazing island’s, so we ensure that we give back to these villages and villagers through the creation of the Yasawa Trust Foundation.

Sustainability

Dramatic and colourful coral reefs have made the Yasawa Islands their home for thousands of years. These unique environments play host to a vast collection of fascinating and striking marine creatures.

Exploring this world is a highlight of any Yasawa Islands holiday but it is also a privilege. Ensuring that these environments are preserved for future generations to enjoy is of utmost importance to us.
