The Captain Cook M.V. Reef Escape (Dro Ki Cakau) is a small ship cruise ship which accomodates just 120 passengers in 60 air-conditioned staterooms and cabins. Each cabin has floor to ceiling windows and the ship has a small pool, a pool bar, gift shop, sauna, spa, and library. The ship visits remote villages in the Mamanucas and Yasawa Islands which are island groups right off the coast of Vitu Levu, which is the main island of the Fiji Islands. You can cruise for 3-nights, 4-nights or choose a 7-night cruise (the 3-night and 4-night cruises combined). You will have ample opportunity to bask in the sun on warm beaches, swim in warm lagoons and snorkel among the coral reefs and visit Fijian villages and learn about the unique culture of the Fijians. I was lucky enough to be part of a group of travel agents from around the world that had the pleasure of experiencing the Reef Escape in March of 2003 and here are some photos showing what it is like to cruise in the Fiji Islands. |
