The guest skipper must be 18+, show a valid ID, and sign a self-drive waiver before departure. We provide a full safety briefing and guidance.

Yes, but self-driving is honestly what makes the cruise special and fun! A captain can be arranged upon request and subject to availability. Please note that having a captain onboard may affect your privacy.

An unforgettable Fiji experience filled with fun, food & Fijian hospitality!
Our Denarau Self-Drive BBQ E-Boat Cruise was one of the highlights of our Fiji holiday in May. The experience was fun, relaxing, and very well organized from start to finish. The captain was incredibly friendly and made the briefing easy to understand, so driving the boat was simple and enjoyable, even for beginners. We also appreciated the additional support boat with two captains who cruised nearby, providing guidance and assistance whenever needed. The BBQ was absolutely delicious, and we were also treated to a large jar of refreshing drink and fresh fruits. It was great to know that guests could bring their own food and snacks as well. A special highlight was the historical commentary provided by one of the captains, who used a microphone connected to our boat speakers so everyone could learn about the area while cruising. To make the experience even more memorable, the captains sang the beautiful Fijian song "Bula," which perfectly showcased Fiji's warm hospitality and culture. A fantastic experience with great food, stunning scenery, friendly staff, and wonderful cultural touches. Highly recommended!

A Relaxing Ocean Escape with Amazing Staff 🌊✨
We had a lovely experience at BBQ E Boat! The ocean views were stunning and the whole atmosphere was calm, relaxing, and peaceful. It was a 3-hour trip and definitely worth the price. It wasn’t crowded at all, and there was plenty of space for our group to enjoy comfortably. The best part was the friendly staff — they were so warm, took photos for us, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. One downside was that the BBQ wasn’t available when we went, which was a bit disappointing. Towards the end of our trip, the weather got a bit rough, but overall it was still a really nice and memorable outing 🌊✨

Had a great time with bbq eboat. Very suitable and relaxing trip with our 6yo who enjoyed cooking up our lunch with a view through the mangroves.
Bbq meat was surprisingly tasty and had generous portions. Came with a generous supply of tropical juice which was greatly appreciated on such a hot day.
Maybe would have preferred to stop somewhere halfway and just relax/cook/eat instead of focusing on driving the boat for the full period.
The Bluetooth speaker was also nice, adding some music to the atmosphere.
