Hosted by the Musket Cove Yacht Club and Musket Cove Island Resort, the world famous Musket Cove Regatta runs from 11th to 16th of September this year and is a must for every yacht planning on cruising Fiji’s magnificent waters.
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.
The regatta program is simple: sail by day and party by night, the latter usually happening around the beachfront barbecue area of the yacht club. The sailing is superb – almost always under the sun and enhanced by a balmy tropical trade wind.

The Regatta begins with an official welcome at the Yacht Club which is an open-air facility located on a tiny island that forms part of the Marina. Anyone who sails to Musket Cove will be welcomed with open arms and automatically eligible to become a member of the Yacht Club.
There is a modest entry fee to cover sailing and social events. Previous events have included a Barefoot Gala Party, Pirate Day (grab your eye patch and Jolly Roger!) and Island Nights. Stay tuned for updates and the official program once it has been released, or click here for the Marina’s website.
Marina and mooring facilities are limited, so to avoid disappointment please book early.
