Fiji

Mamanuca & Yasawa Islands Liveaboard

8 Day Trip

Sea kayak, snorkel and cruise Fiji’s Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands

Since the late 1980s, SSV has been guiding paddlers through the magic of Fiji. Now we’re inviting you aboard the beautiful Sea Breeze III for a new way to explore the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands – by kayak, snorkel and small ship.

Cruising approximately 100 nautical miles across this spectacular island chain, you’ll glide over glassy lagoons, snorkel vibrant coral reefs, and paddle along palm-fringed beaches. Discover remote island villages, relax on deck with a cocktail at sunset, and dine under a blanket of stars. It’s a tropical escape with all the adventure and none of the roughing it.

the live aboard

Sea Breeze III is a 105-foot classic cruising yacht with space for just 10 guests. Fresh from a major refit, it’s a luxurious base for tropical adventure. Cabins are fan-cooled with private ensuites and charming portholes, and the onboard experience includes gourmet cuisine, plush lounges, a hydrotherapy spa, and sun decks. With a dedicated kayak guide and exceptional crew, it’s comfort and seclusion in perfect balance.
