Island experience - Great day relaxing, snorkelling and enjoying the island. The traditional performance was an addition i wasnt excoecing. Highly recommend.

A must do!! - A great experience all around! Very knowledgeable and personable staff, relaxed with family after a tasty lunch.

We really enjoyed the... - We really enjoyed the half day trip and made a lot of memories with our daughter. The catamaran was very comfortable all of the staff on the island were very hospitable, warm, and welcoming. We really enjoyed the fresh lunch and unlimited drinks. They also provided snorkelling gear. The water was very clear but the ground was very rocky so I recommend wearing slippers in the beach if you don’t like that.

The Fijians know how to enhance an experience with their laughter and positive outlook on life. - My wife and I went on a half day cruise with South Seas Cruise. It was excellent weather but the staff throughout were excellent. From Intake to the team on the cruise plus the Island staff. In particular ,Alfred one of the Tender Boat drivers went above and beyond with his sense of humor and pleasant personality and disposition. I have never witnessed a staff who enjoy their work and are happy and smiling for the guests. We have had excellent experiences in Fiji and this excursion just solidified our high opinion of the country as friendly and hospitable. Daryl & Karen Samson Vancouver BC Canada.

Think could do better - Although rainy season we thought we'd give this a go to explore the sea through snorkeling and the semi submersible and a swim in the sea. Disappointing to say the least. They waited till we'd paid and were checking in before advising the semi was out for maintenance, and the snorkeling took more time to load the boat and get to spot than we were given to actually snorkel- 15 minutes! The lunch provided was not great. They were catering to the full day cruise with the same buffet but it ran from 11:30 - 12:30 and we arrived on the island for the tail end of that. Plenty of seating around the island but not a lot under shelter from rain, so if course you swim - the water was great but you need to take boat shoes as it is coral and quite painful to reach water without them. The cultural show was good.

A little disappointed in the South Sea Island Half Day Cruise - Booked and paid for cruise, went to book in and was told the underwater boat was not available on this cruise because of maintenance - abit late then we should have been told this when booking as it was a big consideration of taking the trip. Then told a different thing on the boat but still unavailable. Got to beach at 12.15pm to be told that lunch was on - we were obviously the tail end of the day long trip as food was dried up and not plentiful - was a real disappointment food wise and wouldn't recommend. Life show was good. Then got ready for the main reason for going - snorkeling trip. Too many people for the 1 boat so got on what I call a inferior boat - to be told that the trip was only 15 mins - not Fijian time but 15mins - pretty unfair when it takes a while to get everyone off the boat. But the time we did have in the water was good and plenty of fish. Because we were on the 2nd boat our only way of getting back on the boat was climbing a very unstable metal rung ladder - very uncomfortable and I think they were extemely lucky to not have anyone hurt - I suffer from a bad leg knee and the pain in attempting to get on the board was extreme - the other boat had a better system and epuipment to go on. Finally back to island and not their fault weather closed in but was still relaxing, drinks were easily got, company was great, locals were good. All in all I think the trip was a little over priced for what we got - they need to do something about timing for lunches and when they let people know equipment isn't working.

Half day would be best if you are wanting to relax. - South sea island cruises is a great way to get around to islands. We unfortunately didn’t have the best experience at south sea island. Highlights were the in arrival welcome song and that the staff were all so nice and helpful. Also watching a big volley ball game at the end with the staff and tourists that was fun to watch. I would probably recommend to people who are definitely looking for max relax then this might suit you best as the island is very small and you can walk around in less than 10 minutes. We just were expecting a little more snorkelling ops which you do get 15 mins of and an awesome guide but if the boat is packed it doesn’t make for a great experience. We weren’t able to get on the glass bottom boat as there were too many people which was a shame as I think that might have been better than the snorkelling experience we had as there is definitely a lot to see.

The lunch was good. ... - The lunch was good. Weather was little rainy and windy so several options were cancelled. Beach was very rocky. We left early to go back.

Below Expectations - Apart from great views on way to Mana Island Resort, everything else was below expectations. No clear instructions and the staff at resort were not friendly. The food included was ok but there were so many flies swarming, there was no way it was hygienic to eat There was a lovely staff doing the Kayaks but any promises of snorkelling were at your own risk and there was really nothing to see underwater. There are far better value and better run day tours. I cannot recommend Sputh Sea cruises. All they cared about was taking my money.

Avoid South Sea Island Cruises. - Heartless company. My daughter booked at 7am for my wife to go on the half day cruise. Unbeknown to her my wife is very sick.. At 9am we tried to cancel my wife's booking. They refused. Greedy animals. $409 down the drain. Avoid South Sea Island Cruises.
