For boats

Musket Cove is well known for its sheltered yacht club, marina berths, moorings and cruising grounds. And regularly attracts cruising and racing yachtsmen and women from all over our beautiful, big blue planet.

Our yacht club, and the unpretentious atmosphere at Musket Cove, symbolise everything about the yacht club. Our membership is ‘countless’ – anyone who sails from a foreign port into Musket Cove is eligible to become a member.

The on-shore support facilities are many and varied, including a Trader store, fueling and regular ferry service to Denarau.

Located on Malolo Lailai Island in Fiji’s Mamanuca Group, the marina has a well-protected basin containing 32 stern to berths for yachts up to 24m in LOA and 2.5m draft.

Outside the marina are 25 moorings set in deep water, 2 for yachts up to 24m and the remainder for yachts up to 12m.

The resort is set amongst the 600 tropical acres (240 hectares) of tall coconut palms and tropical gardens on an island fringed by 12kms of white sandy beach. The island overlooks a sheltered lagoon, which has been a haven for visiting yachts from around the world for over 30 years.

APPROACH

There are to passes in outer reefs. The West one is wide and deep, we did it, but there is a South pass, shallower, but many boats go that shorter way. When you are inside the lagoon keep a sharp look for few reefs (easy to see) and go to the anchorage area.

MARINA

There is a small Marina close to the resort at position:

17 46.280’S and 177 11.588’E

The entrance is a 2.5m deep. There are leading lights, but I do not recommend going there by night. There are just few places to berth available, need to be booked in advance.

FORMALITIES

This is not port of entry. The nearest one is Vuda Marina Fiji, about 20NM NE.
