 The Mamanuca Islands are stunning and unique, containing tiny coral atolls, and small volcanic islands all within view of one another. Even though the islands are not overly commercial, they are still popular destinations for holiday cruises and Fiji tours alike. The most well known of this island group, Modriki, was the setting for the Tom Hanks film, Castaway, due to its unique and unspoiled landscape. These beaches also attract honeymooners and wedding parties, as well as backpackers and day trippers. These islands lend themselves to a wide array of commercial water sports activities, including parasailing and windsurfing.
Many day cruises, departing from the Nadi International airport stop at the other resort islands, including Mana, Castaway, Malolo, and Plantation, among others.There are also numerous daily ferries from the main islands to the Northern islands, Kadavu, and to the nearby Yasawa islands.
When it comes time during your Fiji tour to relax and sample local cuisine, there are
numerous restaurants featuring freshly caught fish and other seafood dishes. The influence of Indian laborers in the late 1800s and early 1900s
has enriched to local culture, and as a result, numerous Indian dishes are also available. Kokoda, a Fijian delicacy, containing pieces of raw fish marinated in lemon juice and coconut milk, accompanied by pepper, onion, and tomato, is a popular local favorite, as is Rourou soup, made from blended taro leaves and coconut milk. Whatever you decide to try, you can rest assured that each dish will be prepared with a unique Mamanuca island twist and served with renowned Fijjian hospitality.
