The capital city and largest metropolitan area in Fiji, Suva is a destination worth looking forward to when you’re exploring Australasia and the Pacific Ocean. Here, you’ll find an abundance of vibrant culture, sensational cuisine, and unforgettable adventures. Its importance to the region around it, though, cannot be understated; Suva is the socioeconomic centre of the South Pacific, and is slowly cementing itself as the region’s fashion capital too! So, you’ll really be able to enjoy the best of the best when visiting this fascinating city. Those who want to stay where the action is, you’ll find Suva home to lively marketplaces and several fascinating museums, alongside plenty of places to tuck into some flavourful local food. Beyond this, though, you’ll find so much more to enjoy; the Colo-i-Suva Forest Park is just one of these destinations – but, perhaps, the best for those with limited time in the capital city. A luscious nature reserve just a short distance from Suva, the hiking routes here are exceptional; and, if you want, you’ll be able to swim and bird-watch here too. However you feel like spending your time, you’re in for a real treat when Suva is on your itinerary.
A stunning volcanic island in Fiji, which is also part of the fascinating Great Astrolabe Reef, Dravuni Island is an idyllic paradise where unrivalled adventure and ultimate relaxation await. With a permanent population of just 125, this miniscule island doesn’t even cover an area of one square-kilometre; it really doesn’t get more remote, and more unspoilt, than this. Boasting long stretches of white-sand beaches, sparkling crystal-clear waters, and the opportunity to truly disconnect from the outside world, it can’t be overstated just how incredible this port of call is. Here, you’ll enjoy an authentic Fijian experience, and find picture-perfect views everywhere you look. It’s like stepping into a postcard, in the best possible way.
Mystery Island, is a tiny, uninhabited islet located at the southernmost tip of the Vanuatu archipelago. The island is surrounded by a protected marine sanctuary with vibrant coral reefs, making it a great destination for snorkeling and swimming. Although it has no permanent residents, villagers from nearby Aneityum travel across on cruise days to host markets and cultural demonstrations.

11 Feb 2026
Really good shop with lots going on all day and every evening. The formal nights were not very popular with the majority of the customers though. Really good food especially if you have the premium package. Our biggest problems was booking through Iglu cruises. I would not recommend sailing from San Juan as the port is capable of accommodating large cruise ships. The port was gridlocked for several hours with taxis not being able to get into or out of the port.
Our biggest issue was that we were not able to book the speciality restaurants although we paid for the premium package that allowed us to use these dining venues for no extra cost. This was due to the Iglu policy where payment to the cruise line is maxed weeks after you make your final payment to Iglu. When Iglu had made the final payment on our behalf we tried to book these venues but we weee unable to do so as they were already fully booked.

Compared to other cruise ships we have sailed on, our cabin was a little too small. the shower unit was much too small and the fixed shower head proved to be difficult for my wife to use. As she is only 5' tall a flexible shower hose would have been much easier for her to use. this applied to the other member of our group in the next cabin as well. .

I have just spent a couple of hours reviewing the Princess Cruise.
Comparing this cruise with our previous cruises, Princess come the bottom of our list. Because: the cabin was too small, the drinks packages were far too expensive (so did not use and became tea totalers), the restaurants that did not cost extra were disappointing (the Buffet was very good though), the whole enterprise seemed "money grabbing" (eg. no free soft drinks, no cold water without ice).
Princess Cruises offers both traditional dining and their flexible 'Anytime Dining'. Anytime Dining is available from 5:30 to 10 p.m. On most Princess ships the traditional dining times are as follows: Early seating is at 5:30 p.m. 1st seating is at 6 p.m. 2nd seating is at 8:15 p.m.
Princess Cruises offers a wide range of dietary options, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and low-sodium choices. Guests can notify the cruise line in advance, and the onboard dining team strives to cater to individual dietary requirements.
Cruises to and from Southampton have no specific baggage quantity limit but require each piece to weigh no more than 23kg for ease of handling. When flying to or from the ship, whether via charter or scheduled flight, luggage restrictions generally range from 20 to 23kg per person. Ensure no individual item exceeds 23kg to facilitate safe handling by the ship's crew.
Princess Cruises embraces a smart-casual approach for evenings, with occasional formal nights. Smart-casual attire includes dresses, skirts, or slacks for women, and collared shirts with dress pants for men.
Iglu Cruise has a team in place to provide necessary assistance to make your holiday run smoothly. If anyone in your party requires medical or mobility assistance, notify your Cruise Specialist at the time of booking or as soon as possible if circumstances change after booking. The Special Assistance Team will email a form 6-8 weeks before departure, which must be completed and returned.
Travel requirements
All passengers (including all children), should hold their own full 10-year (5 years for children) British Citizen (GBR) passport. The passport should be valid for at least 6 months past your expected return date to the UK, as this is often a criteria for entry to certain countries.
Princess Cruises strongly recommends that all guests consider purchasing travel insurance to protect themselves against unexpected events that could disrupt their travel plans, such as trip cancellations, medical emergencies, baggage loss, or travel delays.

However you feel like spending your time, you’re in for a real treat when Suva is on your itinerary.
Established in 1872, the Colo-i-Suva Forest Park is part of the Queen’s Commonwealth Canopy – a network of forest conservation programmes developed in 2015 to help protect the natural landscape of Commonwealth countries – and a stunningly beautiful palace to visit when in Suva. Home to a variety of hiking trails, the opportunity to swim, and plenty of birds to spot with your binoculars, everyone can enjoy spending some time here. Among the native flora here, of which there is a lot to admire, you’ll also find some African Mahogany, which was planted here throughout the 1940s and 1950s.
Suva Fiji Temple
A rather recent addition to the architecture of Suva, having only been completed in 2000, the Suva Fiji Temple is a remarkable temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the first of its kind to be built in Fiji. Designed with traditional designs and styles in mind, it’s located at one of the highest points in the city and features a 72-foot tall spire. With subtle nods to the local culture alongside the broader symbolism utilised by the Church, it’s a sight worth seeing and stands out against much of Suva’s other architecture.
Fiji Museum
Sitting in the heart of Suva’s Thurston Gardens, stunning botanical gardens worth visiting in their own right, the Fiji Museum is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in learning more about Fiji and Fijian culture. It’s home to the most important collection of Fijian artefacts in the world, with exhibitions showing off a variety of items of historic importance – from authentic canoes and objects related to cannibalism, to contemporary artwork and more.

If you fancy stretching your legs when you arrive, a short hike up to the inland peak on Dravuni Island is always a good idea. You’ll be able to get here along a fairly easy hiking trail, and you’ll be met with fantastic views of the island when you arrive. It’s also a great spot to grab a picture of your cruise ship, which you should have no trouble seeing.
Snorkelling
If sun lounging isn’t something you want to spend the whole time doing, you can actually snorkel straight from the island’s beaches. With the island being within the Great Astrolabe Reef, which is the world’s fourth-largest coral reef, you won’t have to swim very far at all to find some stunning marine life. A rocky outcrop right by the island’s wharf is home to some of the most easily-accessible coral, making this almost too easy to enjoy.
Dravuni Island Village
If you’re looking for an authentic Fijian experience, it doesn’t get more authentic than the village on Dravuni Island. Here, you’ll be able to observe village life and learn more about the culture here from the friendly locals. You’ll also find the University of the South Pacific research station here, which is used to study the local marine life. While you will have to be mindful of the village’s customs, spending some time here is always special.
