Excellent Friendly Service
We used South Sea a few times to get to and from islands. The service was excellent! Friendly staff and fast service.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Saber Tour is an amazing experience and was the highlight of my holiday!
From the first welcome drink to the morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and even being served a glass of wine on the sandbank in the middle of the ocean - everything was done with a smile and a helping hand.
Food & beverages are included.
Personal care and safety stands out. As a not so experienced snorkeler, Simi made sure I was ok with the snorkeling gear and was my guide for the time in the water, making sure to point out things I might miss in the corals and got me safely to the sand bar.
Snorkeling gear, stand up paddle boards are all included in the trip. I only had to bring my towel, sunscreen and swimmers!
The entertainment was most enjoyable and
I loved the singing and interactive dancing.
Thanks to the crew - who made this experience such an amazing, enjoyable adventure.
I can highly recommend the Saber Tour for anyone who loves the ocean and is looking for an experience you don’t get everyday.

A highlight of our trip.
We hadn't planned on doing this trip - it was a last minute activity so we could fill in a day. We are grateful we did as it was one of the best trips we have done.
The boat was amazing, new, fresh, clean.
You have the choice of sitting on comfortable seats with tables under cover or on the trampoline mesh sitting on bean bags - we chose the latter and it didn't disappoint.
We were given complimentary drinks and food throughout the day.
The boat has a slide you lets you enter the water - such a novelty.
We anchored just off a sandbank and the crew set up deck chairs and umbrellas. There was snorkelling, SUP and swimming available. Snorkel/goggles/fins provided. A small reef with lots of fish and clear water.
The staff were fantastic and entertaining. Great music and vibe happening. Interactive crowd participation on the way back to the marina by way of singing and dancing on the boat.
Not really any change room facilities (female and male toilet only and space limited) so change into swim wear before leaving.
Magical experience, would highly recommend,
Geared for older children and adults. I think 8 years and above. Not suitable for children younger than 8 yrs.

Sailed to the Malolo Sandbar in a nice new boat. Sandbar was completely under water when we anchored. Water started at our chest and eventually went down to our knees as the tide changed. They still brought a bar out on a small motor boat if you wanted to stand in the water.
I travelled with non swimmers who wanted to snorkel for the first time. Guide was extremely patient and encouraging allowing them to face their fear of water slowly and acclimate to the snorkel. We saw so many fish of different varieties. Unfortunately most of the coral was dead.
Staff on the boat was accommodating of our vegetarian diet and large group. Everyone had a blast.

Sabre was a great tour if you are short on time and have to pick only one excursion. It offers a little bit of everything… welcome singing and mimosas, island cruising, snorkeling, time at a sandbar/beach, fantastic morning tea and lunch, open bar (for 2 hrs), jumping and sliding off the boat into crystal clear water, and tons of dancing and partying on the way back.
I have done a few catamaran tours around the world and this one is the best! The boat is beautiful, new and huge! Plenty of shade over tables and loungers, and the beanbags on the trampolines/nets make it super comfortable. The slide and ladder right down the middle made getting off and on the boat super fun and very easy.
Other tours offer more islands but then you forego snorkeling and just time to relax on a remote sandbar. So this was perfect.
I highly recommend Sabre for a fantastic day!
The crew was fantastic. Each and every one made the day so much fun. They sang and danced, set up umbrellas and chairs on the beach, took us to snorkel in the tender and pick up anyone who wanted to get back on board.
The day was structured but it felt like we could do whatever we wanted and the entire boat was ours.

Such a great tour!! What a day we had. The boat was unreal. Very new and luxurious. It was the exact right size where you felt like you could relax and we met some great people. It wasn’t one of those large boats where you get lost in the crowd.
All of the crew were brilliant and kept us fed, watered and entertained so well. They were you’re typical Fijians. Just so lovely and happy! And they sang and danced with us and made it such a great day.
Snorkeling was great and the stand up paddle boarding.
Couldn’t recommended it any more.

On board the "Saber" was such an azing experience. I took my family group of 9.. and each and everyone had such a great time that we wanna come back..from the organizers to the food service and cabin crew it is such a greatly organized day of snorkelling. They took us to the malolo islands and anchored near a sandbank that was close to the beautiful coral reef..they make you explore the reef and are so accommodating ..even the scared non swimmers joined !! So overall excellent for couples or large families!! We danced at the end!! Party on board sabre everyone!

This was our first sailing cruise experience. It was amazing.
From booking of the tour was smooth.
The tour agency pick up arrangement had some trouble , there was some communication gaps, it was all fixed after phone calls and long texts. It was booked for a pickup from resort and was asked to walk to another pick up spot.
Back to the cruise. The crews were fun and energetic, and really helpful in many ways. Finger food was nice and the lunch was amazing.
one of the crews named Ice, we called him Ice Ice baby , he was incharge of taking semi-swimmers or first timer snorkeler , he was careful and ensure our safety from A to Z. Thank you.
Sext Patrick was one of the many crews, he was funny and full of energy.
The cruise itself was well built, amenities were adequate.
Highly recommended , an experience not to be missed.

At the end of the day I observed every single person either shake the hand of, or hug the crew. This was a testament to the experience.
Starting from the musical welcome, and then an included mimosa, the crew made this an experience to be remembered.
90 minutes cruising, where there was the option of a seat in a booth (with room to stretch), or to head out on the trampolines on a bean bag.
Then an included morning tea with delicious vegetable quiche or chicken pie (plus other options, but these were particularly good).
Once we dropped anchor at the sand bar, there was the option to jump from the vessel into the amazingly coloured clear waters. The slide and steps went down to allow easy and fun access to the water/vessel.
We then had a good supervised snorkeling experience for 30 min. Topped off with drinks delivered to the shallows of the sand bar.
Lunch was the best included meal that I have had in a tour thus far - even tours that were purely about the food.
Then there was the opportunity for another, supervised but more independent snorkel - which was even better than the first.
The trip back to Denauru included singing, dancing and more memorably fun times.
10/10 experience.

An absolute delight and a definite highlight of our Fijian holiday. A brand-new vessel, comfortable, stable and spacious. Tasty morning tea, lunch and even a dessert. Snorkelling around the sand bank is impressive, and we can tell it after having snorkelled at Yasawas and the Coral Coast. Really welcoming crew doing their best to elevate your experience. Great vibe allows you to choose between actively snorkelling, dashing the waterslide, swimming to during wines from the esky on the sandbar, taking a ride on a Zodiac boat, or just chilling out under a sail tent. Definitely recommend!

Amazing! This was the highlight of our trip. Starting with the crew singing, being welcomed with a cocktail, stunning view, incredible boat, delicious food, sensational snorkelling.....the list goes on. The people of Fiji are so welcoming and the crew of the Sabre were outstanding. Thank you for a very memorable experience.

We had a wonderful time aboard the Sabre on Wednesday 18 October 2023. The crew was great and we enjoyed the snorkeling. However, I need to let the crew know that I was violently ill from 6 pm that evening until 3 am the next morning with food poisoning. The only food I ate that my husband didn’t was the potato salad and the fish. It’s 2 days later and I am still extremely weak and unable to eat more than a piece of toast and drink 7Up. Please confirm receipt by the crew so no one else gets sick. Judi Burke

What is the maximum number of people that you will book on this Day Cruise, is it the 15 as noted in the materials? Asking for confirmation as some reviews complained that as many more than 15 were on their excursion.

The boat definitely takes more than 15 people. I don’t know what their booking restrictions are, it would probably be best to contact them direct.
