What Our Guests Say

Not just a hype! Find out why we are TripAdvisor’s Travelers’ Choice 2024.

My experience on Big Blue was absolutely fantastic! We chartered the boat for one week and have zero complaints. The boat itself was impressive, with incredibly comfortable and clean cabins. Laura prepared exceptional food, some of the best I've ever tasted. Diving with Joe was an amazing experience, he’s a pro. Fishing and snorkelling was also amazing. Overall a 10/10 experience, I would recommend it to everyone I know!

Meg RA must do in Fiji!

Second time with Big Blue. So good first time , had to go back for more. Definitely the best boat charter in Fiji. Pampered doesn't cover it. Beautiful catamaran, stunning locations that many others do not visit. The food was five star every meal. Diving, snorkelling. paddle and wake boarding or just lazing about on deck...something for everyone. Laura, Joe and Jerry made every thing happen in the best possible way.Will certainly make it number three soon. Thanks to the wonderful crew of Aparima.

Colin DBest catamaran charter in Fiji

What a trip! Total luxury from booking through service from start to end, we had the time of our lives on a spectacular 7-day trip Fiji sailing holiday with Laura and Joe on Big Blue. The Cat has everything you could wish for all perfectly clean and in excellent working order, we were very spoilt. The food throughout our trip was delicious, nutritious and always just seem to appear with no fuss or occasion, so beautifully presented. We went fishing, diving, snorkelling, swimming to islands, paddle-boarding, wake boarding, you name it we did it, and all with the most lovely smiles and calm professionalism from Laura, Joe and the crew...

KatieAwesome 5 star sailing, second to none!

We have been to Yasawa Islands numerous times and stayed in the best resorts, but this topped any previous trip. The incredible experience and knowledge the owners and staff is what makes this luxury Fiji yacht charter the best going around. It really was the perfect adventure getaway with the most talented and professional hosts. The boat was in pristine condition, so luxurious and comfortable...

VictoriaThe most amazing Fiji holiday yet!

Joe and Laura were incredible hosts on their gorgeous, spacious boat. If you want, they will curate the perfect experience for you, but you are also free to do whatever you want every day (and the options are endless!) See an island that you want to check out? Just point it out and away we go! The answer to any question is “absolutely!”...

CleoNever wanted to leave!

Thank you, Big Blue, for an amazing 5 days, full of warmth, hospitality and adventure. The boat is awesome - roomy, comfortable and well-appointed. Joe and Laura are fine hosts and very accommodating. Food was delightfully prepared and excellent! Over the course of our trip we hiked, fished, swam in caves, snorkelled, went diving (some for the first time!) with turtles and ended our trip with an awesome beach bonfire. A totally unique and memorable experience!

MandyAmazing Yasawa adventure!

I've been to Fiji with the family twice before but this 7-night Fiji yacht charter was in a different league, me and the wife are now qualified divers and I also did my freediving course, we ticked lots off our bucket list that's for sure! Crew and boat were great and the food was 5 star. Thank Big Blue

ConBest trip ever!

We found Big Blue last minute and by chance, the team were awesome and able to cater for our needs creating a very memorable experience! We went to Fiji and wanted to dive we were not disappointed, the crew know their spots and worked with our experience level.

SamEpic!

Absolutely love this place. Awesome people and amazing activities for all ages and experience levels. Bunch of legends!

MattDive heaven!

We recently spent a couple of nights out on Big Blue with friends, in hindsight we wish we'd spent longer. The crew were like family, combined with the food, the drink, the accommodation, the weather, the Big Blue vibe made the experience unforgettable. There's nothing more refreshing than jumping into the turquoise sea each morning before breakfast! The snorkelling sites they took us too were better than what I've experienced across Asia, the Caribbean or the Barrier Reef, it was breathtaking.

IanThe must do Fijian experience!
