Fiji: Updates & Travel

Travel in Fiji?

• Fiji consists of more than 300 large and small islands. The white beaches, deep blue sea and most beautiful coral reefs make Fiji a popular vacation destination for tourists looking for peace and beach. Fiji also offers opportunities for the active traveler such as fierce surf, and plenty of sailing, surfing, and hiking.
• Instead of staying on the main island of Viti Levu, go “island hopping”: take a boat to several islands, staying on each island for a few days in a resort or bungalow.
• Go snorkeling in a cave, where to get to the next room, you have to swim some distance underwater.
• Fiji is the place to be for surfing! Most spots are reefbreaks (the waves break above a coral reef) and can only be reached by boat. For beginners, this may not be such a good idea!
• Sailing and windsurfing are also possible in Fiji. Many resorts rent equipment and run courses.
• Go Scuba Diving in the most beautiful places: Fiji is one of the best places in the Pacific for scuba diving.
• Taveuni: trails have been laid out on this island and you can do beautiful trekking, or even a challenging climb.
• Fiji Museum: check out the extensive archaeological collection dating back over 3.5 thousand years.
• Yasawas: island group north of Viti Levu, where many tourists go and stay on different islands.
• Mamanucas: island group located a little closer to Viti Levu, also on the northwest side, very convenient to reach by boat.
• Be prepared that there are Impassable roads outside the tourist area.
• Fiji is not cheap.
• The political situation is unstable - but you generally don't notice much of that as a traveler.
• Severe storms are possible in the rainy season (December - March).
