What you need to know
Check-in
For all Resort Transfers, check-in is required at the South Sea Cruises desk at Port Denarau Terminal, 30 minutes prior to the vessel departure (insert map).
Airport Transfers
Mamanuca Island Resort Transfers – If you are booking a Resort Transfer service to/from an island resort, we can arrange pick up/drop off from/to Nadi Airport for an additional cost (included in your price once booked).
Yasawa Island Resort Transfers – We offer a complimentary scheduled coach transfer to Port Denarau leaving the airport at 7:15am in time to check in for the Yasawa Flyer departure at 8:45am – this must be pre-booked. There is a coach returning to the airport from Port Denarau departing at approximately 6:15pm.
Our driver will meet you in the arrival hall at Nadi Airport (once you have cleared customs and immigration) and will transfer you to Port Denarau in time to meet our vessel departure (or the reverse for travellers coming from an island resort to Nadi Airport). Please select Nadi Airport when booking your transfer to ensure the coach transfer is reserved for you.
Resort/Hotel Coach Transfers
Transfers from and/or back to most Nadi, Wailoaloa, and Denarau hotels and resorts to Port Denarau for our Island Resort transfers are available free of charge. You must however advise us where you’re staying when you book your Island Resort transfer to ensure your pickup is reserved otherwise getting to the marina in time for the vessel’s departure is your responsibility.
Captains Lounge Upgrades
For a small additional cost, experience access to the private Captains Lounge that seats up to 30 people, with a designated onboard host plus you will also receive complimentary snacks and beverages to enjoy during your journey. Available on Yasawa Island Routes. Ask at the check-in counter for availability or check online when booking.
Disembarking the Vessel
Note that most resorts do not have jetty access so transfers from the vessel to the land are done in smaller tender vessels and sometimes involve getting your feet wet so be sure to wear shoes you can take off easily.
