Poseidon Yacht Charters offers a 53 foot classic Ted Hood designed yawl, for charter in Fiji. With accommodation for up to 6 overnight guests, we can take you on a barefoot cruise to dive sites, quiet coves, remote islands and historic towns. Our Fijian captain, Manoa, knows Fiji’s waters and can steer you to all the best places. Do as much or as little as you like. Relax on deck, take a turn at the wheel, trim sails, do a little fishing—it’s all up to you. We are "island style" cruising at its best – no worries, just fun.

Our yacht was designed by Ted Hood and built for him in 1969 in Holland. With the classic lines of a yacht of that era, our yacht’s interior includes a king sized bunk in the airy bow cabin adjacent to a spacious head w/shower.

Moving aft there are two bunks forward of the main salon and a private cabin with two bunks aft of the salon. The aft "owner’s" cabin has two bunks and a private head w/shower.

The main salon has a large table and seating area across from the navigation station. The yacht’s galley is fully equipped to provide fresh and delicious meals on board.

We have a CD/stereo, reading library and a cupboard full of games.

At Savusavu, our base is just a pleasant, full day’s sail away from beautiful offshore islands and quiet coves. We focus most of our itineraries in the waters off Vanua Levu, a less traveled part of Fiji where the tourists are few and the locals are welcoming. Some of the world’s best diving is in the North around Taveuni, Savusavu, Namena Reef and Koro Island. We can take you to dive professionals who will show you the beauty of Fiji’s underwater world. Your hotel travels with you so that you can visit a variety of sites. In addition to diving, in the friendly North you will find spectacular snorkeling, lush rainforests and waterfalls. You can meet people in local villages, go reef fishing followed by a Fijian beach barbeque and try to catch your own lobsters for dinner. We can take you to visit a clam hatchery, turtle farm and to tour historic Levuka, Fiji’s first capital. There is so much to do and it is all nearby. We offer a variety of trips including one-way from Savusavu ending in Suva for touring the handicrafts markets & Fiji Museum. Or you could end your trip in Taveuni, having spent a week at Fiji’s famous dive sites.

Alternatively, for a small fee, we will meet you in the Nadi area and sail the islands on the Western side of Viti Levu which would include the Mamanucas (home to Musket Cove) and the Yasawas (famous for the Blue Lagoon). These popular islands offer sandy beaches, diving and snorkeling. Captain Manoa used to manage the water sports activities at a resort in this area and is familiar with the best cruising spots.
