No visit to Fiji would be complete without a trip to Monuriki Island.
Monuriki Island is a tiny uninhabited gem located in the Mamanuca Islands and was made famous by the movie “Castaway” featuring Tom Hanks.
I ended my stay in the Mamanuca Islands taking a semi-private boat trip to Monuriki Island.
Our 16 year old Fijian guide trekked us up the mountainside to the top of the island. This trek is not for the faint of heart. It’s incredible hot and it’s a steep climb (steeper than the Fiji stairclimber). The views are spectacular.
The pristine white sandy beaches and turquoise waters are simply amazing. The salty waters teem with fish.
Well worth the visit!
