Things to Do in Fiji

Start your Fiji holidays in Viti Levu, the largest of the country’s islands. Explore the capital city of Suva, where you can browse local produce and pick up the freshest brekkie you’ll ever taste at the Municipal Market. You’ll find the best souvenirs, including native art, jewellery and fabrics at the Handicraft Centre. On the western coast is Nadi, one of the most popular spots for travellers and holiday-makers because of its role as a primary transportation point. Check in at the Garden of the Sleeping Giant, which is filled with vibrant orchids and other lush greenery. Get some sand on your feet at Newtown Beach and pop open a coldie (or try the “medicinal” kava) at the local restaurants, which are stocked with tropical fruit, fresh fish and other delightful treats.

You’ll find brilliant hotels in Fiji on nearly every island. Vanua Levu, the second largest island, has plenty of rainforest and colourful marine life to see. If you’re in the mood for wilder, more untamed views, head off to one of the smaller outer islands, like Yasawa and Mamanuca to the northeast. These are popular resort destinations, but keep more of their undeveloped landscape, so you can get your fill of hillside hiking and dramatic sunset selfies #islandlife. Fiji is also the place to go for white-water rafting, jet skiing and kayaking. If you’d like some time to dry off between dips, there’s always skydiving and helicopter tours to get your heart racing.

Getting to & Around Fiji

A plane trip is all that stands between you and Fiji’s Nadi and Suva international airports. Once you arrive, you can make friends immediately by taking one of the island’s “share-taxis” with other travellers from the airport to accommodation in Fiji. There are also public buses and private taxis available, along with hire cars and motorbikes. You can even get around like a local on a bicycle, which is sometimes best for crowded roadways. If you want to take your holiday to outlying resorts and the more remote Fijian islands, check out the local ferry companies.

Toss your sunscreen in your beach bag and book your Fiji accommodation with lastminute.com.au for a low-stress getaway that’ll inspire major envy. We keep it easy, with the option to pay now or later when you search through tons of room choices.
