Fijian Island Culture

The genuine warmth and hospitality of the Fijian people needs to be experienced to be appreciated. All Island Resorts incorporate a rich cultural program on a weekly basis.

At least once a week a Meke (traditional dance) is performed by resort staff members. Here you will see and learn about local traditions and stories through dance and song. This is followed by dinner which is a combination of the traditional Lovo food (earth oven cooking) and South Pacific BBQ buffet.

Visit the local village and after a traditional welcome ceremony meet the local school children and observe a way of life that has remained unchanged for generations.

Or why not experience a traditional Fijian church service available to guests each Sunday at Yaro Village, Malolo where the highlight is to experience the exquisite voices of the local Fijian choir.

Insider Tip

How to avoid an extra overnight room charge on the mainland before departing Fiji's Mamanucas

Be resort transfer smart

We avoid having to book additional bus transfers and hotel accommodation due to a late arrival or early morning flight connections. The Mamanuca Islands are well serviced by 24 hour water taxi services that give you a safe, fast and reliable direct link to the Yasawa and Mamanuca resorts on your schedule, allowing you an extra night on your island resort rather than an airport hotel.

These vessels are built in New Zealand and Australia to the highest marine standards. And don’t worry, they are designed with our comfort and safety in mind, featuring comfortable seating, large covered passenger cabins, specially fitted boarding ramps ideal for beach drop-offs, GPS satellite & Radar navigation, VHF radio communications and full safety equipment.

This way your holiday begins the minute you arrive in depart the Marina, as you take in the spectacular scenery and crystal clear waters of the Mamanuca islands on the way to your island resort.
