Imagine waking up to a stormy weather, thinking about our options for the day. Suddenly, on a whim, we found ourselves snagging a day cruise package! Talk about spontaneity , right?

​

"So, anyway, we hopped on this massive 100ft schooner bound for Mamanuca Island. Picture this: tiny island surrounded by endless ocean, with a storm on the horizon. We're chilling outside, sipping drinks, while someone's strumming a guitar. If you're aiming for laid-back vibes, then this is for you!Stepping onto the schooner, we were met with a festive scene—Fijian locals strumming guitars and singing, warmly welcoming us aboard for our sailing adventure.

​

When we finally hit the island, it started pouring. But hey, no biggie. It's this quaint little spot with zero signal, just pure island life—snorkels, volleyball, and good times.

​

We rented these cool power snorkels, my first time using them. They're a game-changer! Oh, and we even spotted baby reef sharks near the shore!

​

And of course, we couldn't pass up the chance to try Fiji's Kava. Not my fave taste, but the whole ceremony around it was a blast.

​

The Verdict: Fiji's got me hooked. Already planning my next island hop—hopefully with better weather!"
