Sail over tranquil waters to the peaceful island haven that is Savala.

Oolala you’ll set sail across blue water for the outstanding picture postcard that is Savala Island. You’ll be in good hands during your hour and a half cruise with the experienced and entertaining crew providing activities and amusement for both children and adults while giving informative insights into island life.

    Ein rundum gelungener Tag

    Nachdem unsere Bookme Buchung manuel umgebucht wurde ("an Ihrem gebuchten Wunschtag sind wir ausgebucht") und der Shuttle Fahrer uns vergessen hatte, waren wir skeptisch, wie der Tag weitergeht. Aber es wurde perfekt! Die Tour guides waren sehr aufmerksam und informativ, der Ablauf war gut geplant, die Zeit auf der Insel betrug 4 Stunden, die Fahrten mit dem relativ kleinen Boot (super:bei uns waren nur 30 Gäste!) dauern etwa 1 Stunde, das Essen war okay, das Schnorcheln hervorragend, die Stimmung toll. Außerdem wurden kostenfrei Aufsitzkayaks und SUPs samt Schwimmwesten angeboten, eine Masseurin war zudem an Bord. Herzlichen Dank an das tolle Team vor Ort! Ein Highlight auf Fiji.

    Gerne wieder!

    Wir haben einen wunderschönen Tag auf der kleinen Insel Savala verbracht. Die Crew war super freundlich und stets bemüht deinen Aufenthalt auf dem Boot und der Insel so perfekt wie möglich zu machen. Auf der Insel konnten wir die Kajaks und SUP benutzen, Babyhaie füttern ebenso wie Fische auf dem Glasbottom-Boot. Das Mittagessen war auch super lecker! Alle sind mit guter Laune und einem Lächeln im Gesicht Nachmittag wieder am Port Denarau angekommen. Diese Tagestour ist wärmstens weiterempfehlen, und jeden Dollar wert!

    What a wonderful day

    Had an amazing time on the Oolala! Staff was top notch! Playing guitar, singing, bringing around snacks and getting us drinks on the way. The snorkeling was amazing! Reefs were quite shallow in a lot of places so you could literally float right on top of the beautiful fish! Lunch was adequate. The weather was icky and windy and it even rained but I would ABSOLUTELY do it again!! Thanks Oolala

    Awesome day trip

    Great day out. Picked up on time, boat transfers across and back were long but helped with the crew singing. Cake and drinks also on the boat. The island is beautiful. Although they did run out of wine and beer it on the island it was still available on the boat when we got back on. BBQ was great with plenty to eat. Highly recommend it

    Savala island

    We only rated it a 5 because there was no 6. We were a group of 6 with one couple in their mid 70 's. Great food, excelent crew, could not fault the day. Sebastian (Booboo) and the rest of the crew are awesome the service Bula smiles and singing made the day. We will be going again before we we go home. Vinaka team.
