Fiji's main international gateway and the entry point described for Wakaya's arranged private onward aircraft. Tourism Fiji | Wakaya

Secondary international and domestic gateway near Suva, useful when arranging a mainland transfer to Natovi or Bau Landing. It is not a guaranteed direct air route to Ovalau. Tourism Fiji

On Ovalau, organize a local taxi or licensed vehicle for Levuka, village visits and ferry connections through your accommodation or guide; do not assume vehicles or buses meet every boat. Leleuvia is a small resort island where water activities originate from the property. Wakaya moves guests using its own resort arrangements, not a general public transit service. Levuka local host | Wakaya transfer.

Separate the bookings for Nadi-to-Suva, mainland landing, ferry, day trip, and dive boat. Confirm return transport and weather contingencies in writing. Third-party online ferry schedules show unresolved contradictions. No verified public ferry or transfer connects all islands in this guide.

Fiji Ministry of Immigration says a passport should be valid for more than six months from the date of travel, with funds, accommodation details and a return/onward ticket. Visa exemption is nationality-dependent; other travelers must obtain the correct visa before departure. A visitor permit is not permission to work. Check the official list for the passport being used, and carry proof of each separate island booking. Border Watch | Immigration FAQ.

Do not confuse a boat ticket or a private resort's acceptance with permission to enter protected marine zones or customary village spaces. The guide does not provide immigration legal advice or real-time ferry booking confirmation.

Carry personal certification, scuba computer, prescription masks and any difficult-to-fit gear. PADI lists rental and air fills at Wakaya, but neither this nor Leleuvia's dive page establishes nitrox, technical fills, rebreather consumables or all equipment sizes. Confirm cylinder type, BCD/wetsuit fit, gear servicing and allowed luggage with the host. PADI center | Leleuvia.

For boats, use dry protection for cameras and medications, wear a lifejacket on transfers and carry cash for Ovalau small vendors. The Leleuvia transfer explicitly requires lifejackets. Do not plan last-day scuba followed immediately by Wakaya's private flight; use appropriate DAN surface intervals. Resort | DAN.

Operator quotes should be read as FJD, not USD. Cards are common at resorts but small shops, markets, taxis and villages may require cash. Leleuvia lists a 5% card surcharge for its transfer products; reconfirm all taxes and card fees before paying. Tourism Fiji | Leleuvia

Take out Fiji-dollar cash on Viti Levu or in a confirmed town before the boat. Tourism Fiji warns that most small islands have no ATM; do not assume one at Leleuvia or Wakaya. Tourism Fiji

Australian/New Zealand-style Type I sockets are standard. Bring an adapter and confirm any 110V-only device requires a voltage converter; island resort power provision varies. Tourism Fiji

Comunicaciones

Vodafone and Digicel SIM/data service is available at the Nadi gateway, but connectivity and Wi-Fi strength on individual Lomaiviti islands are not verified. Download tickets, maps, contacts and offline emergency plans before boarding; do not depend on mobile data at offshore dive sites. Tourism Fiji telecom.

Leave the resort your travel plan, next landing and return timing. A boat crew should have its own functioning communication and emergency arrangements independent of a guest mobile phone.

Idioma

English is widely used for tourism; iTaukei (Fijian) and Fiji Hindi are also widely spoken. When arranging local villages or customary marine access, use the host or an authorized community guide, ask permission to photograph people and honor local cultural etiquette. Tourism Fiji

Seguro

Choose coverage that explicitly includes recreational scuba at planned depths, live transfers, decompression treatment and air/sea medical evacuation, potentially to another country. Confirm accident exclusions, weather-related trip interruptions, expensive private-aircraft repositioning, and whether any freedive or night dive is covered. The US travel advisory cautions that Fiji chamber availability can be uncertain. Travel advisory.

Carry policy and 24-hour assistance numbers offline. Ask your actual operator about oxygen and evacuation arrangements, especially before any remote Makogai or passage dive. FHTA
