Hotels to get to Captain Cook Cruises
Our pick: Hilton Resort Denarau
Older Couple: Sheraton Fiji Golf & Beach Resort
Younger Couple: Hotel Bulabard
Backpacker: Smugglers Cove
Kadavu Lailai is a part of Tivua Island in the Mamanuca Group about 1.5 hours catamaran-ride away from Port Denarau Marina on Denarau Island which is located near the Nadi Airport. Island departures and arrivals happens in this same marina.
To get to Port Denarau, make sure you have selected the correct pick-up area from your hotel during booking.
During sailing to and from the island, sit inside in the air-conditioned lobby and enjoy morning/afternoon tea or enjoy the fresh sunny breeze outside. Though I would suggest buying travel insurance when visiting Fiji for a peace of mind.
While sailing you will pass the hear-shaped South Sea Island. When choosing to have a day trip in the Mamanucas it’s best to stay in Denarau Island or Wailoaloa.
