7 Day Fiji Itinerary

Day 1: Arrive in Paradise – Tokoriki Island Resort

Your journey begins with a helicopter ride over the Mamanuca Islands—a view that sets the tone for the week ahead. Landing at Tokoriki Island Resort, the peaceful seclusion and vibrant hues of the island will instantly captivate you. After settling into your beachfront bure, indulge in a signature spa treatment to unwind from your travels. Think: warm coconut oils, tropical breezes, and absolute relaxation.

Tokoriki Island Resort is an Adults only resort, so if you’re traveling with kids, swap this destination out for VOMO Island resort, or stay longer at Six Senses Fiji - both fantastic family friendly options in the Mamanucas with manta ray excursions.

Where to Stay: Tokoriki Island Resort, or VOMO Island Resort


Insider Tip: The helicopter ride over the Mamanucas isn’t just transportation—it’s an experience. Make sure to keep your camera ready.

Day 2: Snorkeling with Manta Rays

Dive into the crystal waters surrounding Tokoriki, where a guided snorkeling tour introduces you to manta rays in their natural habitat. Glide alongside these mesmerizing creatures and explore the colorful coral reefs brimming with marine life.

Day 5 and 6: Shark Diving at Royal Davui

Take a ferry transfer from Six Senses to return to the main island, from here you’ll be picked up for a helicopter transfer to the ultra-exclusive Royal Davui Island Resort. Famous for its proximity to Beqa Lagoon. Take the evening to unwind with the rest of the guests at Royal Davui, with some evening Kava and crab racing.

On day 6, one of the highlights of the trip, today’s thrill comes in the form of shark diving. Swim alongside reef sharks and bull sharks in one of the most adrenaline-pumping experiences Fiji has to offer. Not a diver. Then try snorkeling out the front of Royal Davui in their protected lagoon. The coral gardens alone are worth the trip, bursting with life and color and the team at Royal Davui are on hand to provide snorkel gear or take you on a guided snorkel tour. 

Where to Stay: Royal Davui Island Resort, an adults only resort, or for famililes stay at the nearby Nanuku Resort Fiji


Pro Tip:
Shark dives are safe, but it’s best to make sure you have experienced guides to ensure  both you and the wildlife have a memorable, respectful encounter.

Fiji’s beauty doesn’t stop at its beaches. Today, immerse yourself in the country’s rich traditions with a visit to a local village. Participate in an island hike, meet the locals, and learn about Fijian craftsmanship and daily life. The warm hospitality is as breathtaking as the scenery itself, giving you an authentic slice of island life.

Whether you choose a boat or helicopter transfer back to the mainland, you’ll be able to enjoy the picturesque surroundings for a little while longer before jumping back on the flight home.

This 7-day itinerary is a quick highlight of some of the island’s best resorts and destinations. It’s no wonder that Fiji remains one of the world’s top travel destinations, whether you’re lounging in an overwater bungalow or diving into underwater caves, Fiji’s magic is bound to stay with you long after your return flight.
