Captain Cook Fiji cruises are best for people with a flexible mindset and overarching desire to spend time outside — swimming, kayaking, hanging out on the beach and learning about traditional Fijian culture. Its M.V. Reef Endeavor isn’t decked out with glitzy amenities or resort-style accoutrements. Instead, you’ll find a neat and tidy ship with a friendly Fijian crew.
Daily schedules can frequently change according to the weather and preference of the guests, and the vibe on board really reflects the local culture — that is, sunny, laid-back and relaxed. For evening entertainment, expect vibrant small group performances with music, dancing and lighthearted fun.
Captain Cook really shines when it comes to its all-included shore excursions. You’ll tour local villages, chat with the people who live there and visit local churches and schools. There’ll also be breathtaking hikes and gorgeous coral reefs where you can snorkel and dive. The ship is equipped with glass-bottom boats, which you can borrow at no extra cost.
