Sunset chasers Couples wanting something private and memorable Groups who want a relaxed, all-in-one afternoon Anyone who wants to try spear fishing

This is Suli's most relaxed itinerary — a private boat ride out across the bay to a quiet island a few minutes from the beach beside the InterContinental, with the day shaped around whatever your group is after: swimming, a slow snorkel, a go at traditional spear fishing, or simply time away from the resort crowd.

As the light softens, the tour can finish with a beach bonfire — a simple, unhurried way to end a day on the water, with the sound of the surf and the smell of woodsmoke instead of a resort restaurant menu.

Because it's privately guided rather than a scheduled group tour, timing and pacing flex around your group. Couples often use this as a low-key, non-touristy alternative to a big-production 'island night' show; families use it as a laid-back way to fill an afternoon without a rigid itinerary.

Good to Know

This tour is flexible by design — message on WhatsApp with roughly what you're after (swim, snorkel, spear fishing, bonfire, or all of it) and the plan will be built around your group.
Evening bonfire timing depends on sunset, which shifts across the year — your guide will confirm the best finish time.
Spear fishing success isn't guaranteed (it never is!) — it's offered as a fun, guided introduction rather than a fishing charter.
Great as a private alternative for couples who'd rather avoid a large, staged resort dinner show.

“Highlight of our Fiji holiday. Located right at the edge of the InterContinental's beach where the headland bends — look for the guy in the cowboy hat and his friend Sly. They gave my wife and I a private, unforgettable afternoon.”

“Had a great day with Suli, picked us up by boat from the beach near the InterContinental. Fish feeding in the lagoon first, then to the private island nearby to snorkel. Such a fun, easy morning.”

“We went to the villagers' private island with Suli for snorkeling and a Fijian meal of lobster, mud crab and fish. It was a great experience. We felt very safe.”

Island & Bonfire — Frequently Asked Questions

Is this tour private, or shared with other tourists?

It's built around your group — typically just your party and your guide, rather than a mixed group of strangers on a big boat.

Do we need experience to try spear fishing?

No experience needed — your guide will show you the basics. It's offered as a fun, low-pressure introduction, not a serious fishing expedition.

Can we book just the bonfire without the boat trip?

Yes, a beach bonfire can be arranged on its own for an evening — mention this on WhatsApp so it can be set up for your preferred time.

Is food included in the bonfire evening?

Food and drink for the bonfire can be arranged with advance notice — let the team know your preferences when you message to book so it can be organised.
