Swim with these beautiful gentle giants
Imagine crystal clear turquoise waters, volcanic chiselled islands and the picture perfect sunkissed Fijian islands of your dreams. The Yasawa Island chain consists of picture perfect islands with their white sand beaches, azure lagoons and the swaying coconut trees of paradise.
These islands, accessed from Denarau Marina, just half an hour from Nadi International and a fast ferry ride up the islands. The location for the iconic movie, the Blue Lagoon, the scenery is dream like. The marine life is healthy and directly before your beachfront accommodation and the star of the show - manta rays are right in front of your bure when they visit between May to October.
We recommend a combined package with sister resort on neighbouring island - Barefoot Kuata.

Barefoot Manta is the place to be if you love these gentle giants The resort works programmes to educate and enable you to get very close and personal with manta rays and to understand their biology and advocate for their protection. White tips and black tip sharks are also present on the house reef.
A marine biologist is on site offering educational programmes and coral cultivation programmes. The manta rays are all identified and entered into a database. Research is ongoing to learn more about where they go in between their time spent around the Yasawa Islands, breeding and other aspects of their life.
