The operation involved the Totogo Operations team, the Dog Unit and the Fiji Detector Dog Unit, who searched an inter-island vessel.
Police say plastic bags containing dried leaves believed to be marijuana were found hidden inside a vehicle.

All five were escorted to the Totogo Police Station, while the seized substances have been sent for analysis.
Investigations continue.
