“The food is great; I had lamb stew, creamy spinach, coleslaw, chicken and vegetable chop suey, everything was well balanced. The entire time Manasa sang for us live, as we enjoyed the sun set and as we ate. The crew showcased a well done performance, and was friendly. If you enjoy live music you’ll enjoy this! The day was overcast but we still had a lot of fun and took great pics! If you like having fun, with great food and even better entertainment you won’t regret this.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 118 reviews · 6 hours · from $126

Travel from Nadi or the Coral Coast by coach and boat to Likuri Island for a sunset welcome, beach bonfire, Fijian lovo buffet, firewalking, knife dancing, and a Pacific cultural show. The evening lasts about six hours, but hotel transfers can make it longer. Bring a towel and sandals, and budget extra for drinks.

“Hi, the details of the activity did not specify a 1 hour bus trip to the jetty. I did send an email querying the early pick up and was told this was due to passenger pick up. The shows and food was good. The boat ride back was risky in heavy rain, late at night in absolute darkness and a torch used for guidance. There were anout 45 to 50 people on a small boat! I think that safety and comfort of the passengers should be priority and mre specific details provided on the advert of the activity. Thank you”
