  • Awesome Adventures Fiji Package or Pass customers – $15 per person. 
  • Resort Transfer only customers travelling to/from all Yasawa Island Resorts (including Vomo) – $15 per adult/$7.50 per child (2-15 years only) for each one-way sector.

Weather Advisory #1

YASAWA ISLAND DAY TRIPS DISRUPTION & RESORT TRANSFER ANNOUNCEMENT

Yasawa Adventures Fiji – South Sea Cruises Group (SSCG)
Tuesday 02nd March 2026 – 05.45am

Bula,

As a result of heavy rain and localized flooding over the past 24 hours, SSCG will continue to operate a reduced vessel schedule today, Tuesday 3rd of March 2026. This decision has been on the basis that some road access within the western division is likely to remain impassable this morning, and therefore mobilizing customers and crew to deliver normal operations is unlikely to be without its challenges.

These decisions will also give our island crews an opportunity to clean up and prepare our day trips assets from the impacts of adverse weather over the past several days.

For now, Route 7 travelling to/from the Yasawa Islands is scheduled to operate however SSCG operated day trips to the Yasawa Islands remain suspended for today, Tuesday 3rd of March 2026

Please be advised that whilst the above-named service is currently scheduled to operate, if the weather and/or sea conditions change unexpectedly and/or are at any point deemed not safe to continue operations then services may be altered or suspended with little or no notice in the interest of customer and crew safety. 

Customers impacted by the suspension of SSCG products & services can defer their departure to another day or if they are unable to defer travel they can cancel without penalty. Please contact reservations@ssc.com.fj or call +679 9995512 to amend your travel arrangements.

With the weather expected to greatly improve throughout today, all SSCG products and services are scheduled to
operate as normal on Wednesday, 4th of March 2026.

Vinaka.
