The currency used within Fiji is the Fijian dollar.

There are no banks in the Yasawa Islands so you'll need to plan ahead! The bank at Nadi International Airport is open 24 hours and cash machines are available at Nadi Airport, in Nadi town, Wailoaloa Beach and at Port Denarau.

A number of resorts in the Yasawa Islands do no accept cash so a credit/debit card is a must but it is still advisable to have some cash with you.

The electric current is 240 volts. Fiji has three-pin power outlets, which are identical to Australia and New Zealand.

Resorts in the islands have generators, so you'll have electricity from sunset to midnight and generally for the first part of the morning, however operating times can vary so please check with your resorts. 

The baggage allowance is the same as most airlines. We carry the baggage at the rear of the vessel. There's limited space, so to be fair to everyone there's a limit to how much you can bring on board

- One carry-on bag which can weigh up to 7kg (15lbs)

- A standard item - usually a bag - weighs up to 25kg (50lb)

There is a travel desk on board the vessels, where you can book your transfers and or accommodation for your Pass or add to your trip as you travel. Credit/Debit cards are accepted.

Confirmations are subject to availability.

Throughout the majority of the Yasawa Islands there is 3G coverage so yes, most of the time your mobile phone will work but it is sometimes intermittant. 

The main check-in counter is situated at the passenger terminal at Port Denarau, a large building on the waterfront, which leads out to the marina.

Taxi and coach services can take you directly to the terminal. Upon entry to the terminal, you'll see the South Sea Cruises & Awesome Adventures Fiji check-in desk and be greeted by their friendly staff who will direct you to board your vessel and will arrange the transportation of your luggage

Yes, they sell a range of food and drink (both non-alcoholic and alcoholic) onboard the Yasawa Flyer. Personal alcohol cannot be consumed on the vessel. Choose to upgrade to the Captain's Lounge (on the Yasawa Flyer only) and get a selection of complimentary snacks and drinks as well as a seat in an air-conditioned private lounge on the upper deck

No, meal packages cannot be pre-booked. You must purchase them and pay for them in FJD on check-in at the resort.

Fiji has beautiful weather all year round, with a very warm, tropical climate. The rainy season is from November to the end of March, but don't let this 'dampen' your spirits as the wet season is usually made up of plenty of sunshine, with only one or two sudden downpours a day. This means you can still enjoy your beach holiday!

Yes. It is an essential condition of travelling with Awesome Adventures Fiji that you have valid travel insurance.

There are no medical facilities in the Yasawa Islands so if any medical problem arises you will need to return to Nadi. Sea and weather conditions can sometimes prevent travel on your booked dates as well.

Exploring the Yasawa Islands is as easy as 1, 2, 3!

STEP 1: Chose your type of travel and duration. The Awesome Pass is a flexible travel pass including pre-paid vessel transfers, accommodation, and meal plans. Pre-book or book as you go. Travel for 5-15 days. 

STEP 2: Choose your style of accommodation - either dorm-style or Single or Twin rooms.

Yasawa Flyer transfers to the islands are included in your pass, however they must be booked 24 hours prior to departure.

Most of the resorts in the Yasawa Islands source the majority of their staff from the surrounding local villages and islands. Just about every resort is beachfront, with coral lagoons on the doorstep. 

The resorts on offer have a range of room types from simple dorms through to beachfront luxury bures which means they cater for a very wide range of budgets.

Dorm’s (or Dormitories) are great for social travellers on a budget – these range from Dorm rooms with just 4 beds through to 32 beds and are a mixture of unisex or single-sex. You will, of course, be sharing your sleeping space and bathrooms with other travellers but it’s a great way to keep the cost down and meet new people. 

Bures (Fijian word for Bungalow) are your own private room, most of which include a private en suite – these do cost a bit more but this gives you your own private space.

Note: The resorts are not owned by Awesome Adventures Fiji and standards vary from property to property. Awesome Adventures do monitor the resorts and have  staff visiting regularly to ensure everything is as it should be. Some of the properties run on power generators therefore, the voltage supplied might not be as strong and some devices may not operate effectively.
