5 or 7 Days Kayaking
Join Tamarillo Kayaking Expedition on a tropical expedition, by sea-kayak. An eight-day slice of paradise. Paddle at a leisurely island pace along the palm-fringed coast, drifting from one idyllic scene to the next. Dive down to the fish-filled reef, snorkel over the castles of coral. Beachcomb your way around deserted islands, siesta under the mango trees. Laugh with the locals, and feast on the fine, fresh food from the land and sea, tropical delicacies and imported gourmet essentials.
Our journey takes place around the islands of the Kadavu Ono group, the southernmost islands of Fiji. There are few roads here, and no large towns. Small, traditional villages dot the coastline, while inland the rugged hills lie cloaked in dense rare rainforest.

Deuba Sea Kayaking: ½-day program
Coastal Cruise: Sea Kayaking • Snorkeling
Our stable, two-person sea kayaks provide the ideal vessel with which to explore Fiji’s beautiful coastline. We begin our ½-day journey near the mouth of the Deuba River where we are acquainted with our craft before heading out to sea.
En route, we will explore the mangrove forests that thrive in these coastal waters. As we paddle through these unusual forests, we’ll keep a sharp lookout for local denizens that call this unique ecosystem home. Mud lobsters, herons, harrier hawks, king fishers, and fruit bats inhabit this area, which many refer to as “The Ocean’s Nursery.” Here amongst the “dread-locked” root systems of the mangrove forest, some of the ocean’s fauna reside until they are large enough to fend for themselves in the azure waters of Beqa Lagoon.
Following lunch, we set our course for the open ocean where we search for coral gardens and the kaleidoscope of tropical fish that make this saltwater oasis their home.
Our final leg will take us along the sandy beaches of Pacific Harbour where we can relax beneath the shade of a palm tree and recount the memories of our coastal sojourn.
Beqa Island Sea Kayaking: 1-day program
Coastal Cruise: Sea Kayaking • Snorkeling
This incredible journey begins with passage across Rovodrau Bay and Beqa Passage to the protected waters of Beqa Island. En route, we enjoy spectacular views of Vitu Levu’s mist-shrouded, mountainous interior and palm-fringed coastline.
Following a hearty lunch, we head for Malumu Bay, where we sea kayak deep into the cliff-lined interior and visit Lawaqalevu Island, where hundreds of fruit bats cling to the surrounding trees like overripe fruit. Tides permitting, we paddle to the apparent end of the bay only to continue through a secret mangrove tunnel that leads to the great blue sea. Here, views of Kadavu, more snorkeling, island exploration and peaceful paddling fill the remainder of the afternoon.
We conclude our journey by riding the waves and chasing the setting sun back to the mainland. A gentle sea breeze and a colorful sunset conclude a full day of fun, making an exploration of Beqa Island and beyond a rewarding and memorable experience along Fiji’s adventure coast.
