— -- There's a saying that there's no such thing as bad pizza.

Now that that's been established, some places are more enjoyable than others when it comes to enjoying a slice.

Some pizza connoisseurs swear by a red-and-white-checked-tablecloth kind of joint. But we'll take this floating pizzeria in paradise.

Cloud 9, located in the ocean off the Fijian island of Viti Levu, is now serving wood-fired pizza along with a full bar and weekend DJs.

There are a few different options for getting to Cloud 9 -- including a 2.5-hour jet-ski ride -- but it's most easily accessed by a 45-minute speedboat ride from Port Denarau, a major tourist hub, or just 10 minutes from the closest resort: Musket Cove Resort, Lomani Resort & Plantation Resort.

Rather than grab a slice on the run, most visitors choose to make a day out a trip to Cloud 9 and combine swimming, snorkeling, para sailing and sunbathing in the daybeds and hammocks offered with their meal. As many as 100 people can visit Cloud 9 at one time.
