Getting There & Around

How to Get to Moturiki

Moturiki is reached by local inter-island boats from nearby larger islands or provincial centres. From Suva or Levuka, travellers generally take a ferry or a series of small launches to a nearby hub and then a local boat to the island; schedules are informal and subject to weather. Visitors should check with local operators in the nearest main town for the latest crossings and ask to be dropped at Moturiki.

Tips for Visiting Moturiki

  • If approaching from the larger islands, ask the ferry operator to call out Moturiki - small landings can be easy to miss.
  • Bring mosquito repellent and reef shoes; shorelines here are rocky in places.
  • Learn a few Fijian greetings - islanders will respond warmly and stories flow more freely if someone says bula first.
