Fiji  
     

Sunny, unique and unspoiled, the Fiji Islands are one thousand miles of pristine white sand beaches, fabulous coral gardens and azure lagoons.  Fiji’s 333 islands can sizzle with excitement or murmur with the quiet calm of pristine nature.  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.  The sun shines almost everyday in Fiji 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. Here, life is lived for the simple joy of it all, where rushing is rude, and the name of a new friend is never forgotten.

Nadi

Sitting amongst sugar cane fields on the west coast, Nadi is Fiji’s third largest city and its tourism capital.  Once a small community of farmers and shopkeepers, Nadi has mushroomed into a thriving metropolis.  The main street, Queen’s Road, is decorated with cheerful planter boxes and polite clerks smile from restaurants and souvenir shops.  Hotels trickle down the lush mountainside and a plethora of activities, ranging from horse riding in the Nausori Highlands to wrestling a marlin on a deep sea fishing expedition, awaits you.  Crowning Queen’s Road is the opulent Sri Siva Subramaniya Swami Temple, a spiritual sanctuary for Fiji’s large Hindu population.  To feel at one with nature, visit the Garden of the Sleeping Giant, and be engulfed by acres of exotic orchards and native trees.


   

     

Coral Coast

Named after the coral reefs that jut out into the sea like piano keys, the dry Coral Coast offers shelter from the driving rains of Suva and the crowds of Nadi.  Travel along the scenic coastline using Queen’s Road and watch the landscape ripen from cane fields dancing in the wind to blankets of thick forest.  For a wilder ride, hop on the Coral Coast Railway and sit in a restored sugar cane locomotive as it takes you to the sights including the stunning Natadola Beach and the shopping town of Sigatoka.  When the day dies down, take advantage of the resort amenities and enjoy an invigorating massage or a first-class meal in an open-air dining room.
