Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay has announced its partnership with World Surf League (WSL), as one of the official accommodation partners for the 2024 Corona Fiji Pro, scheduled from August 20 – 29.
This collaboration is expected to benefit surfers, spectators, and surf enthusiasts.
Returning to Fiji for the first time since 2017, the final event of the regular nine destinations surf season will witness some of the world’s top surfers converging on Cloudbreak, where they would vie for a spot in the WSL Final 5.
As the official accommodation partner, Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay will play a role in hosting officials and international media throughout the duration of the 2024 Corona Fiji Pro.
Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay general manager Silvano Dressino said: “Through this partnership, we are directly supporting the resilience and sustainable development of these communities as WSL’s return to Fiji is making a positive impact on the community.

“It is boosting the economy, creating jobs, fostering local pride, and promoting environmental conservation.”
The WSL has collaborated closely with the Government, Tourism Fiji, and the local communities of Tabanivono I Wai (Nabila and Momi villages) to reconstruct the Cloudbreak judging tower that was demolished during Cyclone Harold in 2021.
WSL APAC President Andrew Stark said: “It is an incredible resort with stunning surroundings and is located only a stone’s throw from Cloudbreak, where the event will take place.
“All of this, combined with the resort’s commitment to excellence, will make for an unforgettable experience at Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay during the 2024 Corona Fiji Pro.”
Cloudbreak, located off the island of Tavarua, is considered a top area worldwide for surfers.
