Top spot, particularly if you go early. We visited 25nov'19 and arrived round 11.30 am . Great fun putting on the silkey soft and smooth mud, walking round till it drys,then rinse off in 1st pool and soak for longer in 2nd thermal warm pool. You can repeat the process if you want , just sun dry between. Recommended taking soap and conditioner to wash off after in shower's provided,and plastic bag fr wet/ muddy swimmers. This is a 100% Fijian family owned and operated business and local guide was great. Cost F$30 p person which was nothing, compared to Spar prices in Denerau, Sydney, London etc who would only use a cup full of mud on you, rather than bucket loads here! Best of all was the smooth energised feeling to all parts the mud reached. Highly recommended. We used local pre booked taxi driver Sam pH +679 736 7707 or 941 9295 he has 5 cars and cost F$80 pickup 9.30 am Denerau - Sleeping Giant gardens F$18 entrance fee and onto Mud thermal pools and dropped back in Nadi at 1.30pm at Hindu temple for Masala dosa lunch. Excellent half days adventure

I heard a lot about this place and was warned that the road is not safe. But we set on a cross country journey with my dad. Went through the Sigatoka Valley Road and came right from the Nausori Highlands Road. This is the road least traveled with no road signs hence recommended for 4 wheel drives. You just have to trust your navigation skills as the area does not have network at places and the villages are located were far away. We did had to stop and ask for directions in few villages. But it all was all worth it. The view from the Nausori highland is worth the travel. We spotted out 2 or 3 waterfalls but they were quite off the road. Be ware of the wild horses that just run upon seeing the vehicle. Worth a trip to see the interior of Vitilevu.

We have truly just had the perfect day. A beautiful cruise with Captain Cook Cruises and their awesome crew out to the beautiful Tivua Island where we went snorkelling, swimming, scuba diving with Tiger from Dive Fiji (thank you for being so patient as I tried to get used to breathing through the scuba tank), paddle boarding, kayaking, glass bottom boat- coral viewing, Coral planting with the resident marine biologist was so much fun!. Followed by a delicious sumptuous lunch on the island, morning and afternoon tea was served on board their boat. Entertained all day by great music, dancing lots of laughter, dancing. Not to mention Perfect hot weather. We had juvenile black tipped reef sharks swimming around us, schools of tropical fish, giant clams, Make sure you take advantage of the awesome local deals and support our local tourist industry during this tough Covid time. This is by far the best value for money trip you can do, and so much fun. You will not regret it at all.

This was one of the best days ever! Ask for Abraham. He's a blast to hang out with while you enjoy the mud. Your body will feel so soft after you are done. It's definitely worth a trip.

This beautiful, warm-water beach stretches past several resorts and is a great place for long walks, volleyball, swimming or just people watching.
Reviewed By AccomWatcher - Upper Hutt, New Zealand
Denerau... Our favourite place.... the beach has changed a lot due to erosion and has never been much of a beach, so if that’s why you are going.... Don’t! But the area is safe, pleasant, obviously warm, great selection of resorts, one of which will be to your taste. The port can soon have you at an island for the day to enjoy corals, swim, activities
