An amazing place to go alone, as a couple or with family. Delicious food, incredible sunsets, lots of activities or enjoy swim up pool bars, palm trees and relaxing in a hammock. I’m lucky to have been many times. It’s affordable with friendly locals and wonderful tropical island culture. Only 3hrs from NZ and no time change… perfect for children. Can stay in fun, family hotels with everything, or have a romantic, quiet getaway with a loved one. Very safe for travelling alone, everyone is warm and welcoming!
Posted: January 3, 2024Although cliche I don’t recommend walking alone at night as I did encounter some strange people. Majority of the locals are amazing and always glad to help and super sweet. I do recommend visiting local villages, when doing so ensure your knees aren’t showing nor your shoulders. Although they will always have clothes to borrow if needed. Seeing an authentic village helps put into perspective the true beauty of Fiji.

Hey so my family is originally from Fiji so I go back quite a lot! I can safely say that I absolutely love Fiji and because the dollar is so good, everything in Fiji becomes a ton cheaper I think there’s a great mix of things to do both for someone who wants to relax and someone who wants thrills The only thing I’ll mention is at night, outside of the main resort island (Denarau) it can be a bit dangerous if you’re not careful
Posted: December 20, 2023I stayed in Fiji for a month and apart from the tourist areas, it was very cheap there. I spent most of my stay in Sigatoka. Public transportation was safe and incredibly cheap. I felt much safer in smaller towns than in big cities.
