Let the Adventure Begin!
Your Fiji Day Cruise Itinerary Aboard Aparima
Your journey begins with a pickup straight from your hotel, where you’ll be transported to ‘Aparima,’ your catamaran for the day.
A typical day cruise lasts from morning until late afternoon, ensuring you have plenty of time to enjoy all the activities and soak in the beauty of the islands. But here are the fun bits and bobs that you can look forward to on board the ‘Aparima’ throughout the day!
Set the mood with music and drinks! Every adventure needs a perfect soundtrack, and on the luxurious ‘Aparima,’ you’re the DJ! Plug in your favourite tunes, create your ultimate Fiji playlist, and set the mood for a day of island fun. Top it all off with refreshing cocktails and delicious drinks to keep the party going.
Splash, slide, & explore with water activities. Dive into a world of underwater wonders with our top-notch snorkelling gear to explore the vibrant coral reefs. For a dose of laughter and excitement, enjoy thrilling biscuit rides and wake skates. Prefer a gentler pace? Glide across the turquoise waters on a paddle board, soaking up the Fijian sunshine together.
Savour delectable BBQ options. No adventure is complete without a satisfying meal! Big Blue Fiji day cruises offer two delicious options to tantalise your taste buds. Enjoy a mouthwatering BBQ lunch prepared fresh onboard the ‘Aparima,’ perfect for groups of up to 15. For larger groups, opt for a vibrant BBQ feast at Musket Cove’s Island Bar, all while soaking up the island atmosphere.
Unwind and recharge. Sometimes, paradise is all about slowing down and soaking it all in. On your day cruise, our spacious decks and trampolines offer the perfect haven for relaxation. Catch some rays on a comfortable sun lounger, unwind with a good book, or unleash your inner child on the trampolines.
By the end of this perfect day trip, we’ll set sail back towards Nadi.
Every moment onboard is meticulously designed to provide you with an exceptional and personalised experience. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, anniversary, having a friends or family day out, or organising a corporate team-building event, our day cruises cater to all.
