Cloud 9 Fiji: The Floating Bar in Mamanuca Islands

Updated: March 10, 2020 | Bucketlist

Cloud 9 Fiji is a dream come true.

It’s a two-level floating bar in the middle of the Malolo Barrier Reef in Fiji.

Relax on the sun deck with a cocktail in hand as you look out over Fiji’s endless azure seascape. Or, jump off the bar into the inviting ocean before devouring a wood-fired pizza. 

Backdropped by a soundtrack of the most cutting-edge DJ music you’ll ever listen to, you’ll truly feel like you’re on cloud nine.

The water surrounding Cloud 9 Fiji is about…

It’s the perfect depth to jump off the bar without touching the bottom. Yet it’s not deep enough to make you feel like there are scary marine creatures below you.
