Visit the South Pacific
Ideas for Your South Pacific Vacation
Fiji
I quickly fall in love with Fiji, the Fijian people, their food, their smile, their beautiful landscape the first time I visited them. I returned few more times, and planning a trip to Fiji is always the highlight of my work.
​
Fiji, a country in the South Pacific, is an archipelago of more than 300 islands. It's famed for rugged landscapes, palm-lined beaches and coral reefs with clear lagoons.
Its major islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, contain most of the population. Viti Levu is home to the capital, Suva, a port city with British colonial architecture. There is plenty to do either if you come here for a honeymoon, for a family- or a dive vacation, or if you would like to do some invaluable volunteer work in any of the local villages.
​
Accommodations range from village stays to 5+ star luxury hotels on a private island.
