Amazing Experience - must do! Schooner Whale's Tale - Mamanuca Islands Full Day Cruise

Amazing Experience -  must do!

I am so happy that I booked this trip. It was totally worth the money. I had a great time. Here is my experience: Pros: --BEST snorkeling ever (beautiful fish and basically no current so it was an easy swim and the water is warm even in winter) --Food and drink included in price (the longer I stayed in Fiji and did other trips I realized what a money saver it was to have a trip booked with breakfast, lunch and unlimited drinks included) The food was delicious and plentiful and the drinks were good and bottomless --Very friendly staff (they were always smiling and chatting with you and they made sure my cup was never empty!) --Beautiful/cute small island all to ourselves with plenty of places to sit in the shade or get a message or lay back or play volleyball or go snorkeling or take a tour on their glass bottom boat --We got to see baby sharks! Cons: --The boat is very slow and you spend more time on the boat in total than you do on the island but I did not take off any stars for this because I already knew this was the case. The only thing that could have made this better was a little faster of a boat!

I was very impressed by the infinity pool but it was VERY COLD! So I went to do snorkeling in the warmer ocean water but there was not much too see and I was very disappointed in the snorkeling. Went to order lunch and some drinks and it was very expensive but very delicious. They did have a special for a bucket of 5 beers for $40 which is the cheapest you will get. You are only on the boat for about 30 minutes each way and then you get to spend about 6 hours on the island so I did like all the time we had. Would have given 5 stars if you were allowed to bring your own food/drinks and if the snorkeling was better. Overall I was happy I did this trip and do think it is worth it if you have the funds.

I was a little surprised when a small, new looking car pulled up to pick me up. I was sure they were taking me to a large shuttle bus but no! The entire tour was just 3 of us in a small air-conditioned car with our own private tour guide. The temple was beautiful, the market stop was short but enough time to pick up some souvenirs, the farmers market I bought a fresh young coconut for $4 and drank the coconut water and then the seller chopped up the coconut and removed the flesh for me so I had a delicious snack, the school was awesome to see and learn so much about how they are similar/different to other countries schools, the village was interesting to see and learn about the impact religion has had on the Fijian society, the garden of the sleeping giant was beautiful but nothing really special than other gardens I have seen, and the mud bath/hot springs were fun! First you smear mud from a vase all over your body, then let it dry, then get into the mud pool to wash off, then get into the hot spring to relax. In the mud pool you will be up to your knees in a loose, slimy mud that feels like seaweed or jellyfish so I had a difficult time adjusting to that gross feeling but it was a great experience overall and would definitely recommend it to everyone.
