    Highlight of our trip!

    4 Hr - Fishing Trip on March 26, 2026

    We truly experienced Fiji with this tour! This was the highlight of our trip which we booked the fishing/snorkelling tour for our youngest LOVES fishing. We didn’t know what to expect but Ilai and Zaira were the best captain and co captains making us feel at ease and set up everything for our boys! Well equipped with all safety necessities such as life jackets and first aid kit, they had all the fishing gear too! We trolled and then came to spot where Ilai set the boys up to cast, hand line and even spear fish while we snorkelled. Views are stunning, hospitality beyond pleasant and the knowledge of the area is mind blowing but being locals they got it! Our sons first time ever, first shot caught a fish while spear fishing! These two are so kind, professional, chill and fun! We wish we knew about them at the beginning of our trip than the last bit. 100% recommend!!

    Best Fishing Trip - Highly recommend

    4 Hour Trip – Unwind Day on April 20, 2025 • 6 adults

    Absolutely! Here's a polished 5-star review you can use or tweak as needed: --- **5 Stars – Unforgettable Family Fishing Adventure!** We had an absolutely amazing fishing trip with Captain Ilai! From start to finish, it was an experience our whole family will never forget. Captain Ilai was not only knowledgeable and professional but also incredibly friendly and great with the kids—making it a perfect charter for families. The boat was well-equipped, safe, and comfortable, and Captain Ilai made sure we were in the right spots to catch fish and have fun. His passion for fishing and the ocean truly made the day special. The kids were thrilled, and the excitement on their faces every time they reeled in a catch was priceless. If you're a fishing enthusiast looking for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure or just someone wanting to try something new with the family, I highly recommend this charter. Thanks again, Captain Ilai, for the memories—we'll definitely be back!

    Fiji fishing

    4 Hr - Fishing Trip on March 18, 2025 • 5 adults • 3 children

    Was an awesome trip! Stayed at the Sheraton and were picked up right off the beach. The captain and crew were 1st class and just great guys to talk to. Did not try to push extra on us, but were determined to catch some fish. We fished for almost our time limit and as we were getting close to going back, we tried one last spot and bang!! Strike after strike!! Was an awesome trip!! We even stopped and fished with a hand line the Fijian way which was awesome!!

    Great family friendly fishing experience!

    6 Hr - Fishing Trip on July 9, 2025 • 4 adults • 1 child

    We had a chance to experience several different types of fishing and snorkeling on our trip. We were able to be picked up and dropped off right from the beach at the Sheraton. While we didn’t catch “the big one” we did catch plenty of fish to keep the kids engaged and wanting to fish for days. We even saw dolphins on our way out. We would do this again for sure. Thanks for a great day on the ocean!

    Such a time to remember...more than just a day on a boat!

    4 Hour Trip – Unwind Day on April 30, 2025

    We had a the best experience with Captain Ellie and his wonderful Dutch Deck Hand! 😃 My daughter and I had a half day fishing and spearfishing on the reef. We ended up catching fish, enjoying each others company that much that our families with children enjoyed dinner together that night. Local, caring and dedicated to your Fijian fishing experience. Don't pick anyone else! Thanks for the memories guys

    Great outing!

    4 Hour Trip – Unwind Day on August 3, 2025 • 5 adults • 1 child

    We had a great experience. Captain Ilai picked us up right on the beachfront of our hotel. After a nice cruise out to the fishing area, starting trolling, fishing, etc. We had the opportunity to swim & he even offered to take us to an island for snorkeling. He was so accommodating - our family thoroughly enjoyed this trip. Thank you Captain Ilai!

    Best trip ever!

    4 Hr - Fishing Trip on December 19, 2024 • 3 adults

    My sons and I had an absolutely awesome day on the water with Ilai and Zaira! We each caught beautifully big fish, saw dolphins, turtles, all against a stunning Fijian backdrop. Zaira packed a delicious lunch and kept us well fed and watered in between meals with fresh snacks including mangoes from their own tree! Ilai did not stop until everyone caught a fish, using trawling, casting and jigging techniques. He was as excited as we were with each hook. A truly unforgettable day in paradise!

    Private fishing and snorkelling charter with captain Eli

    on May 9, 2025

    We had such an amazing experience, doing half day private charter snorkelling and fishing. The boat was great and the crew was exceptional. Our day was 10/10, we saw so many fish and the reefs were great. Definitely would recommend to friends and will be using again next time we are in Fiji!

Great day on the water.
4 Hr - Fishing Trip on May 19, 2026 • 3 adults

Three of us wanted to try spear fishing. Why not in Fiji? Captain Ilhi provided everything we needed. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to have a relaxed day on the waves with no pressure and a friendly captain.
