Fiji
Sunny, unique and unspoiled, the Fiji Islands are one thousand
miles of pristine white sand beaches, fabulous coral gardens
and azure lagoons
More then anything else, Fiji is an exotic destination.
It's the exhilaration of a dolphin arching high into the
air beside your boat; the long gliding swoop of an orange
dove through the rainforest; the smiles of excited children
performing in unison to the beat of a hollow log drum.
Our 333 islands can sizzle with excitement or murmur with
the quiet calm of pristine nature. Where else can you swim
with huge, harmless manta rays congregating by the shore,
snorkel over giant rainbow gardens of soft coral, or scuba
dive the White Wall and famous Astrolabe Reef. Fiji is where
the Cloud Breaker, the incredible six-metre wave found offshore
at Tavarua, draws surfers from around the world. It is also
where you can float in the calm, quiet waters of a turquoise
lagoon at sunset or walk alone through lush rainforest.
It is where the sun shines almost everyday and when it does
rain, people rush outside for a rainbath in the warm, brief
downpour of a tropical shower which ends as quickly as it
began. This is where life is lived for the joy of it all,
where rushing is rude, and the name of a new friend is never
forgotten. Fiji is where people wear flowers tucked in their
hair, not to impress visitors, but because they like to.
The Fiji archipelago is at the cross roads of the South
Pacific. In the days of sailing ships it was known as The
Cannibal Isles and carefully avoided by mariners because
of its fierce warriors and treacherous waters. However,
in the age of jumbo jets and global travel. Fiji has become
the central hub of the exotic South Pacific. More than 85
flights land at Nadi on the main island of Viti levu every
week. From there it is only a quick seven minute hop to
one of the offshore island resorts, or less than an hour
of flying time to Vanua Levu or Taveuni, the second and
third largest islands, where then outside world is quickly
left behind.
