Foreword

Bula Vinaka & welcome to Voyages.golf’s fourth Fiji Golf Week. For those who will be joining us again at the Sheraton Resort in Denarau, we cannot thank you enough for your continued support. For the newcomers, welcome to Fiji and Vinaka for choosing Voyages.golf.

Fiji is easily accessible from Australia’s east coast, Auckland, and the USA’s west coast. For those who haven’t visited, Denarau is the key resort area located on the main island of Viti Levu. It houses several luxury resorts and a key port area which serves as the main access point to all other islands in the country.

Golfers are invited to the Sheraton Resort in Denarau between 05 - 11 September 2025 for a fun-filled week of golf, inclusive of four rounds of golf. Three of these are played at the Denarau Golf and Racquet Club just over the road from the Sheraton. The other round is played at Fiji’s top course: Natadola Bay Championship Course. No Fijian golf experience is complete without playing a round of golf on the Vijay Singh-designed Natadola Bay. This event includes plenty of time for relaxation, day activities, extra golf and good times spent with fellow golfers.

This event is suitable for all types of golfers and we’re proud to have achieved a rate of 60% ladies and 40% gentlemen, whereas just a few years ago most tour companies would be lucky to achieve 20% female attendees. This is trip is highly regarded for being a fun, safe and relaxing environment for those looking to take a break from normal life whilst enjoying the numerous amenities available at the Resort and from the Port. If you have not experienced Fiji before, we highly recommend Fiji Golf Week, which is in its 4th year in 2025!

We are also excited to introduce a new event for the golf addicts & luxury-seekers: Natadola Bay Fiji Classic. Taking place from 11 - 16 September (directly after Fiji Golf Week).

Our Queenstown Golf Week 2024 was our 3rd trip with Voyages and we have at least two more booked. From the first email to the final goodbye Voyages are exemplary in every aspect. No detail was overlooked and they make you feel so very welcome. The accomodation at the Crowne Plaza was great - perfect central location... the golf courses at Jack’s Point and Millbrook were outstanding and our day trip to Walter’s Peak was amazing...superb BBQ buffet.

We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Voyages if you want to experience a great golf trip.

Itinerary

Day 1, Arrivals

Friday 05 September 2025

The day has finally come. On arrival, greet our team to collect your room key & gift pack before settling in to your luxurious accommodation for the week.

Day 3, Golf

Sunday 07 September 2025

For our second round of golf, we head back to Denarau Golf Club to right our wrongs from yesterday. This can be a very tricky golf course if the tide is up so beware!

This evening, you’re invited to our official welcome Function! We’ve got fantastic local musicians lined up, as well as bottomless drinks and dinner. We’ll officially launch this event in style.

Day 2, Golf

Saturday 06 September 2025

After breakfast at your leisure, make the short walk over to Denarau Golf Club. We tee off at 09.00 in a shotgun style format. We’re playing Individual Stableford each day so it’s easy to remember. Denarau Golf Club is relatively flat but it’s criss-crossed by waterways which are lethal if you have to keep taking a drop so beware!

After golf, there is free time to enjoy lunch at the club or at the Resort. The evening is free to spend at your leisure.

After golf, we return to Denarau for an evening spent at your leisure. There are plenty of restaurants in the port area. We recommend Sails or Cardos for some of the freshest seafood you’ll find in the Pacific.

Sixth Hole - Natadola

Day 4, Rest

Monday 08 September 2025

Today is all about doing nothing. Typically in the past we’ve included an excursion to Tivua Island but this year we’re leaving the day free so you can relax by the pool, or we can book you a day trip experienced (see activities list).

For those feeling a little more adventurous, there are off-site activities you can do including:

• Fishing trips

• Sailing trips & island beach-club experiences

• Sigatoka River safari

• Bushwalks

• Deep sea diving

• Snorkelling, paddleboarding & surfing

• Cloudnine floating pontoon

• Tivua Island day-cruise

Day 5, Golf

Tuesday 09 September 2025

For our third round of golf, we head to Fiji’s top golf course: Natadola Bay Championship Course. It opened in 2009 and was masterfully designed by Vijay Singh & consultants into a worldclass layout with amazing views over the coral coast. It is a tough golf course and one that you need to have your A-Game for, so be warned!

Day 6, Golf

Wednesday 10 September 2025

Yesterday, our team brought the clubs back to Denarau so after a breakfast at your leisure, we head over to Denarau

Golf Club for our final round. It’s time to finish what you started and enjoy a final round of golf with newfound friends & travellers. By now you know your way around the course (best holes are #15#18 in our opinion).

After relaxing for the afternoon, you’re invited to our official farewell gala dinner with live entertainment, free-flow drinks and an amazing buffet. We’ll award all the prizes from the week here so get ready for an eventful night spent dancing.

Natadola Bay Golf Course

Natadola Golf Course

Natadola Bay Golf Course is one of the most prestigious and breathtaking golfing destinations in the Pacific. Located on Fiji’s main island of Viti Levu, it sits along the stunning Coral Coast, offering panoramic views of the South Pacific Ocean from nearly every hole. Designed by former professional golfer Vijay Singh, a Fijian native, Natadola Bay combines a world-class golf layout with the natural beauty of Fiji.

The championship course opened in 2009 and quickly gained a reputation as one of the finest golf courses in the South Pacific. It features an 18-hole, par-72 layout, spread across rolling landscapes, coral reefs, and beachfront fairways. The course stretches over 6,566 meters (7,150 yards) and offers a challenging yet rewarding experience, with ocean breezes and varied terrain keeping players on their toes.

Natadola Bay is not only known for its natural beauty but also for its challenging design, with undulating greens, strategically placed bunkers, and well-protected fairways. The signature hole, the 4th, is a standout, with the green perched high above the Coral Coast, offering a spectacular backdrop of white sandy beaches and turquoise waters.

The course has hosted several professional tournaments, including the Fiji International, part of the ISPS HANDA PGA Tour of Australasia. This has further solidified its status as a world-class destination, attracting professional golfers from around the globe.

Denarau Golf Course

The Denarau Golf Course is a par-72 layout, stretching over 7,150 yards (6,530 meters) from the back tees, making it both challenging and enjoyable for golfers of all skill levels. The course is relatively flat, but it incorporates several strategic features that make it demanding, particularly for more advanced golfers.

Features and Layout:

Water Hazards: One of the most distinctive features of the Denarau Golf Course is its abundance of water hazards. Water comes into play on 15 of the 18 holes, either in the form of lakes, streams, or the ocean, which borders several holes. This adds a level of difficulty and requires precision, especially when approaching the greens.

Tropical Surroundings: The course is beautifully landscaped with tropical vegetation, including coconut palms, flowering trees, and vibrant gardens. The backdrop of the ocean and nearby islands enhances the aesthetic appeal of the course. The fairways are lined with palm trees, giving it an authentic Fijian feel.

Championship Holes: The signature holes include the par-4 15th hole, which runs along the beachfront, offering stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. The finishing holes, particularly the par-5 18th, are also known for their difficulty, requiring long drives and precise shot-making to avoid water hazards and bunkers.

Bunkers and Greens: The course features numerous strategically placed bunkers that protect the greens and fairways. The greens are generally large and subtle, requiring careful reading for accurate putting. The paspalum grass used on the fairways and greens provides a smooth and consistent playing surface year-round.

Practice Facilities: In addition to the 18-hole course, Denarau Golf & Racquet Club offers a full range of practice facilities. This includes a driving range, putting greens, and chipping areas, ideal for players looking to warm up before their round or to improve their game.

Clubhouse and Amenities: The clubhouse is well-equipped, offering a pro shop, locker rooms, and dining facilities. The club also has tennis courts and hosts various social events and competitions for both golf and tennis enthusiasts. Feel free to unwind in the Heineken Bar after your round to get the full view.

Good to Know

Local Currency

It’s important to carry cash on all trips in case of emergencies. Sometimes local services can be down and you may need to pay for a meal with cash rather than card. It is advisable to change some money into Fijian Dollars on arrival to ensure you have some at all times. This is useful for paying any taxis, buying golf balls off locals, or spending small quantities in the port.

Tee-times

Because we are situaed next to the golf course, we’ll tee-off around 09.00 each day which benefits the schedule in two ways. First, it allows more time for afternoon activities or relaxation & allows you to do as much as you want, even catch up on rest with an afternoon nap.

Resort Activities

There are dozens of resort activities to choose from, as well as day trips to take with pick-ups from the Resort itself. Please consult with us prior to booking any activities.

Dining

Denarau Island in Fiji offers a wide range of dining options, primarily centered around its luxury resorts. These include beachfront restaurants, offering fresh seafood, Fijian specialties, and international cuisines like Italian, Asian, and Mediterranean dishes. The Port Denarau Marina area is another popular spot, featuring a variety of casual cafes, bars, and fine-dining restaurants with diverse menus, perfect for enjoying waterfront views. Many resorts also offer themed buffets, private dining experiences, and outdoor barbecue options.

Activities

Port Denarau Marina is a bustling hub for cruises and day trips to the stunning Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands. From here, visitors can embark on snorkeling, diving, and sailing excursions, or take island-hopping cruises to explore Fiji’s crystal-clear waters and white sandy beaches. Sunset cruises, fishing charters, and cultural village tours are also popular, offering a mix of adventure and relaxation.
