Located at the tip of the sickle-shaped isle of Nanuya Balavu off the north coast of Fiji is the stunning resort of Manta Ray Island. This small paradise retreat is a marvel of natural beauty. A pristine coastline of silky white sand underlines the royal blue waters of the South Pacific Ocean while, further inland away from the beach, a flawless tropical forest rises over undulating hills that stretch unbroken from end to end. As the quirky name suggests, the shores of the resort are a globally recognised haven for Manta Rays. These great winged creatures glide majestically in the warm shallows of the surrounding ocean, much to the delight of the divers and snorkelers that frequently explore the coral reefs that line the coast. The island is without any roads or public transport meaning that the only way to and from the resort is via the boats that operate from the port area near Manta Ray Island Resort. There are no facilities at the port which itself is little more than just a designated section of the beach. High-speed ferries leaves Manta Ray Island Resort throughout the week. It's a route operated by Awesome Adventures Fiji who whisk passengers the short distance south along the Pacific to the port town of Denarau on the Fijian mainland.
Port Denarua is on a small private island in the northwest corner of Fiji’s mainland, Viti Levu. It is the main gateway to some of the beautiful islets along the northwest coast and is just twenty minutes from Nadi International Airport by car. It is considered the island’s finest marina facility, offering restaurants, a spa, a large supermarket and a wide selection of shops. You can also book tours and activities inside the terminal. There are a number of luxurious hotels on Denarau Island where you can relax overnight before your journey as well.
