To know Fiji is to love it, and what’s not to fall for in a tropical island paradise such as this? Fiji, a land of warm smiles, sizzling sunshine and white sandy beaches in the South Pacific, is blessed with more than 300 stunning islands – some inhabited and others offering tourists the chance to relax and unwind away from civilisation. We take a look at the highlights.

MAKING THE MOST OF FIJI
Nadi, on the biggest island of Viti Levu, is known as the gateway to Fiji, and this is where most international flights will land. From there, you can choose whether to fly or drive across to the other side of the island before a short boat ride to a tiny
island paradise. Here you’ll find Naigani Island Resort, the perfect base for sightseeing and experiencing the hospitable Fijian culture.
Naigani's rich tropical rainforest is home to some of Fiji's most precious and spectacular flora and fauna. Nature walks beckon
fans of the great outdoors and it’s imperative to remember your camera. Here you are almost guaranteed sightings of animals, birds and plants you won’t find anywhere else in Fiji. Activities to while away the hours include kayaking the tranquil blue waters, fishing, barefoot golf or swimming in crystal-clear lagoons.
A visit to the village to meet the locals will also be one of the highlights of your stay. If you’re lucky, you’ll be there for a ‘meke’ (a traditional song and dance) – no need to bring your own booze as kava (which tastes a bit like mud, really) is in abundant supply. Fans of fishing can go out with the locals and help bring home the catch. Whether you like spearing coral trout or hunting for crabs, you’ll have one of the best mornings of your holiday with the fishermen of Naigani Island Village.
Some of the safest snorkelling in Fiji can also be found around the spectacular fringing reefs of Naigani. A wide range of tropical fish species and sea creatures can be found, and if you’re a fan of scuba diving this can be arranged through the resort. With warm waters and great visibility for most of the year, schedule some time spent in the waters of Naigani’s reefs.
