You Can Only Reach This Island by Boat or Helicopter #fiji #luxury #exclusive
Sail through Fiji’s Mamanuca Islands on a South Sea Cruises ferry as we glide past Qalito Island, better known to many travellers as Castaway Island. From the deck you can see palm-fringed beaches, clear turquoise water and the hilly green interior that makes this private resort island feel like a true South Pacific escape. It is one of those moments where you are not even off the boat yet, but you already feel like you are inside a screensaver. Qalito sits in the heart of the Mamanucas and is home to Castaway Island Fiji, a long-established resort ringed by white sand and vibrant coral reefs, accessible only by boat, seaplane or helicopter. As the ferry passes, you get a perfect side-on view of the island and its beaches, plus a teaser of what it would be like to stay there (or to come back on a future trip).
