Fiji has over 300 islands in its archipelago, each fringed with coral reefs and lapped by warm azure waters - the diving and snorkelling are superb. Amid its wealth of natural beauty, Fiji's true magic lies in its people and the fascinating blend of their diverse cultures.
Fiji is an interesting blend of Melanesian, Polynesian, Micronesian, Indian, Chinese and European influences. For nearly 50 years, until the military coup of 1987 and the Indian emigration that followed it, the indigenous people of Fiji represented an ethnic minority in their own land.

I was snorkeling in Fiji and I tried to get back on the boat while it was powered on. I dove down to get the fin I dropped and my head nicked the propeller. I was taken to shore straight away and had to get 7 stitches plus a tetanus shot. ... Read more >

Now I know that in many ways I considered this past year a bit of an indulgent and protracted holiday, but that was until I experienced the blissed out tropical indulgence of Fiji. That's what I call a holiday! Before you can truly experience Fiji- ... Read more >

I hadn't planned to go to Fiji after Australia, but when Mum and Dad decided to go there with my sister Julia and family for a holiday, a 'free' week in the sun sounded like a great idea. I got there a week before them, and was quite pleased ... Read more >

About 10 days into our Fiji experience and we have actually found it difficult to adjust to the laid back lifestyle, where time passes slowly and watching a sunset is the only way you know a day has passed. Here are a few of the highlights so far...... Read more >

Firstly an apology, for taking so very long to write and publish my final blog from my month as Chief of Vorovoro way back in September. Life has been a little surreal for me since then, with hardly time to think, let alone sit and write my usual lengthy ... Read more >

This week started off with another visit to the doctors for me, which was a bit of a waste of a day on Vorovoro personally, but better news with the ear canal looking better. It's so hard to keep from swimming and snorkeling in the beautiful waters ... Read more >
