Fiji is a beautiful island in the South Pacific, home to unparalleled natural beauty, friendly people, and lots of great places to visit.
Whether you’re an adventure-seeker or someone who prefers to immerse yourself in the culture of a location, Fiji is for you.
Go Scuba Diving
What’s an island vacation without a scuba diving experience? Fiji is known for its scuba spots and you won’t be disappointed. We sure weren’t!
If you’re a bit more adventurous, you may want to try scuba diving with sharks. Yes, sharks! Aside from swimming with sharks, the waters of Fiji are home to brilliantly-colored fish and marine life, so you’re in for a treat.
Visit a Traditional Fijian Village
If you want to immerse yourself in the culture of Fiji, we recommend visiting a traditional village, outside of the main tourist hubs.
Here, you’ll get to enjoy traditional music and food, meet the locals, and take part in a traditional Kava ceremony.
Experience Kava
Experiencing the culture when traveling is important, and a traditional Kava ceremony is at the heart of Fijian culture. We highly recommend taking part in one of these ceremonies, which involves drinking a traditional Fijian drink - Kava.
Go Snorkeling
The coral reefs surrounding Fiji are perfect for snorkeling. Some of the hotels in Fiji make it easy to snorkel on your own, due to their proximity to the beach. However, you may want to book a guide, especially if you’re new to snorkeling.
Explore The Islands
There are over 300 islands in Fiji! Some of the islands are uninhabited and some have tiny towns with limited facilities. If you’re looking to do some island hopping, whether it’s a day trip or an overnight stay, there are endless beautiful islands to explore.
A Jungle Adventure
Something you may not want to miss out on is taking an ATV tour through the jungles of Fiji. You’ll get to ride a quad bike through the jungle, and experience some of the best views Fiji has to offer.
Hop On A Boat
If you’re slightly more adventurous, we think you should consider the jet boat tours that take you on the Sigatoka River. This is not for the faint-hearted or those afraid of speedboats! It is a thrilling, exhilarating experience.
If appreciating the finer things in life is more your speed (no pun intended), then we recommend booking a catamaran trip. Some day trips include lunch and drinks, as well as snorkeling and swimming in crystal-clear Fijian waters.
Bouma National Heritage Park
If you’re looking for an off-the-beaten-track experience, away from the uber-touristy places, this is one place to add to the list.
The Bouma National Heritage Park protects a vast amount of untouched rainforest. Many refer to it as the ‘real’ Fiji. Here, you’ll be able to book activities like snorkeling, hiking, or camping.
Visit The Gardens Of The Sleeping Giant
The gardens, situated in Nadi, are exquisite and a must-see on your trip to Fiji. This location is right next to the mountain, which looks like a ‘sleeping giant’. This is where the gardens, and mountain, got their name. It’s definitely a must-see for botanists and nature lovers.
