You will arrive to Nacula Tikina either by Yasawa Flyer or Turtle Airways Seaplane and Joe's Water taxi will ferry you to the magnificent resort.

The Yasawa Flyer
The Yasawa Flyer is a large catamaran which travels daily from Denarau Marina (Nadi) to Nacula Island (Oarsman's Bay Lodge) in just under 4 hours. It stops at a number of other budget resorts on the way for picking/dropping of passengers and is a great way to see the idyllic Yasawas. You'll witness the stunning and varied scenery of this chain of ancient volcanic islands. Cruise along the coast of the dramatic islands - at the southern end they have steep volcanic cliffs and unusual rock formations whilst towards the end of our run near the famous Blue Lagoon, the surrounding islands are more low lying with palm fringed, long sandy beaches. Snacks and refreshments are available on the flyer and there is seating for 150 guests, both inside and outside.

Daily Schedule:
Depart Denarau Marina (Nadi), 9.15 am
Depart Nacula, 1.30 pm

Yasawa Flyer

Yasawa Flyer Ferry is the only ferry which goes up to the Yasawas. Costs F$110.00 for Standard Cabin and F$135.00 VIP Captains Cabin per adult, Children aged 0-4 years old FOC, Children aged 5-15 years old half price, Children aged above 15 Years will be full adult fare, one way from Denarau Marina to Nacula.

Bula Pass
You can also choose a Bula Pass, which gives you the opportunity of unlimited island hopping. Especially when you've got all the time in the world, this is the perfect way to explore the beautiful Yasawa Islands.

7 day Bula pass cost F $ 250 per person
14 day Bula Pass cost F $ 369 per person
21 day Bula Pass cost F $ 399 per person
(Please check rates with your booking agent)

How the Bula Pass Works: your Pass is valid for one return journey to the Yasawas and to hop between resorts and islands as often as you choose. (Note: Travel between Denarau and South Sea Island is included in the Pass. Travel between Denarau and Beachcomber is not.) We suggest you book your first leg and first nights accommodation with your Pass then travel at your leisure.

Whilst all travel is paid for, reservations must still be made for all sectors at least 24 hours prior. (Contact Awesome Adventures)
