Bula, and welcome to the diverse islands of Fiji. There are white-sand islands here perfect for a relaxing beachside holiday, or little-visited islets and rugged hinterlands for the more adventurous.

Choose Your Island – large or tiny, party or romantic, exclusive or family-friendly...there’s an island in Fiji for you.

Go Native Or Do It In Style – our authors tell it like it is with frank, opinionated reviews of backpacker digs, homestays, luxury resorts and everything in between.

Immerse Yourself – with a detailed special section on diving in Fiji.

Dig The Locals – we reveal the inside scoop on history, culture, and how to fit right in.

I went to Fiji for 2 weeks with our kids using this book. It all worked great. I love the LP books for their candor and really information. they tell you what is good and what is not so good. We found all the information to be accurate and complete, even though the book sis not too big.

The book provides lots of valuable information. After reading it we decided to forego the Fiji stop and just add that time to our New Zealand trip. Glad I read this in the early trip planning stages.
