ACTIVITIES

Nukubati provides plenty of the adventure that the South Pacific is renowned for, from the thrill of the seaplane arrival, to sailing in unchartered waters, to fishing outside the Great Sea Reef, and to scuba diving where no one else has ever been.

You don?t have to be a scuba diver to enjoy the delights of the Great Sea Reef.
The corals are within arm?s reach of the surface and you can feel and touch a vast array of undersea life without even making the shallowest of dives.

Nukubati?s surf season is the summer season, November to March, when the swells come across the Pacific from the North and create exciting surf conditions on the Great Sea Reef, just 20 minutes out from Nukubati Island.

Four wheel drive safaris can also be arranged to tour the main island of Vanua Levu.

ROMANCE

Nukubati Island exudes romance and is the perfect place for a honeymoon, a wedding or a rekindling of your love. With a candle lit dinner on the beach, a picnic on a nearby deserted island, a walk through the rainforest or just a simple breakfast of tropical fruit on your verandah overlooking the beach, the intimacy of this small private island resort will capture your heart.

WEDDINGS

There is no better place to combine a wedding with a honeymoon than on a private island in the South Pacific. Nukubati will be pleased to arrange your memorable legal wedding ceremony. You can choose any location on the island. The most popular choice is on the beach at sunset. The ceremony can be conducted by a civil celebrant or a church minister of your choice, and accompanied by a church choir or the very popular Nukubati Serenaders.
