Where to go and what to see in Fiji

Each Fiji islands group has something special to offer. The Mamanuca Islands, to the west of Nadi, have picture-perfect resort locations for idyllic family and couples holidays. Further out are the Yasawa Islands, which are loved for their white sandy beaches and pristine marine habitats where you can snorkel with tropical fish, manta rays and reef sharks.

Likuliku Island Resort in the Mamanuca group has overwater bungalows, arranged around a calm, clear lagoon. Each bungalow has a bathroom pavilion with water views from the tub.

Viti Levu, Fiji's main island, is known for superb all-purpose resorts - you can stay at Denarau, the Coral Coast, Pacific Harbour and in the north on the Suncoast. Viti Levu's rugged interior is a place for adventures in the mountains and on the rivers.

Vanua Levu, Fiji's second-largest island, is more focused on diving and snorkelling. To the south-east is the island of Taveuni, known as the garden island, where you'll discover great diving, national parks and rainforest hikes.

Family-friendly holidays

Fiji is only a 3 hour flight and the same time zone as New Zealand, making the holiday transition very easy for those traveling with kids. Fiji holiday packages have always been popular with families, not just for the weather, swimming pools and fun marine adventures, but for the wonderful Fijian kids clubs and nannies that ensure parents enjoy themselves as much as the kids. Fijian people have a natural love of children and are famous for the legendary level of care and attention they provide.

Kids clubs generally take children from age three and over. Programmes start after breakfast and operate all day, with a break for dinner. Children spend their time playing sports, learning Fijian games and crafts, building sandcastles, cooking, feeding fish, racing crabs, making friends and much, much more. Children too young for kids clubs can have nanny care for minimal charge. Fijian people have a wonderful way with children, from babies right through to teens, so parents (who are off doing grown-up things, like reading by the pool or sipping cocktails) are barely missed.

Relaxation and renewal

Relaxation happens the moment you arrive in Fiji. As well as being a top spot for lazing on the beach, snorkelling azure lagoons and sipping cocktails at sunset, Fiji is a superb location for renewal and revival. Pack up all your cares and woes, aches and pains, stresses and strains, because there's a range of spas and retreats ready to help restore your health and happiness.

Most resorts have spa treatments on offer: Bebe Spa at Outrigger has 360 degree views of the Coral Coast and Senikai Spas have facilities across a number of resorts. Many spas use divine, locally-made skincare products that feature active ingredients from Fiji - Pure Fiji and Nama Fiji are two brands to look for.

Romantic escapes

When you want time for two with all the tropical trimmings, Fiji can match your expectations and then some. Helicopter transfers, chilled champagne, couples massages, white coral sand, swaying palm trees, twin deckchairs at the edge of a turquoise lagoon, a private plunge pool, sunset dining with a view, gourmet picnic baskets on sand cays…the list of romantic possibilities is limited only by your imagination.

For those wanting peace and quiet away from the squeals of happy children, there are affordable adult-only luxury resorts all over Fiji, namely Tropica Island Resort, Lomani Island Resort and Matamanoa Island resort. Many other resorts have adults-only areas. These include the Waitui Beach Club at the Sofitel Fiji Resort & Spa and Koro Area at Hilton Fiji Resort & Spa - all of which are Denarau hotels. The Warwick Fiji and Shangri-La's Yanuca Island are on the Coral Coast. 'The Cove' at Paradise Cove Resort in the Yasawa Islands also offers an adults-only club area where you can dine, swim and relax without the pitter patter of tiny feet.

All across Fiji there's a magnificent choice of luxury resorts that will leave you wanting for nothing.

You'll find stunning overwater bures at Likuliku Lagoon Resort and Fiji Marriot Resort Momi Bay. Each bure is surrounded by turquoise lagoon - for your morning swim, just step off your private deck and into the ocean.

If you want even more exclusivity, there are number of luxury private islands in Fiji, complete with butler service and personal chefs. You can even have your own Bure Mama to orchestrate every aspect of your romantic escape, including vow renewals if you're celebrating a significant anniversary.

For a shorter romantic getaway, Denarau Island is a 25 minute drive from Nadi airport. Choose a beachfront room or suite, book a sunset dinner and ask the band to play your favourite song. Perfect!

Adventure time

While it's easy to get preoccupied by lounging on a pool side bay bed or sipping cocktails on the beach, more adrenaline filled pursuits beckon from the mountains and sea.

On Fiji's mainland of Viti Levu you can go hiking, quad biking, horse riding and white water rafting. There are also two zip-lining experiences that zigzag across rivers and through the rainforest. Jet boating on the Sigatoka River is another immersive attraction, where you get scenery and fun in equal quantities, as well as a look at local village life for a taste of everyday Fijian culture. To discover the biggest view in Fiji, go tandem skydiving - the islands, reefs and beaches look amazing from 14,000 feet.

Ocean-based adventures in Fiji extend way beyond the usual snorkelling, paddle boarding, kayaking, jet skiing and surfing options. You can swim with Manta rays in the Yasawa Islands, dive with sharks in Beqa Lagoon, fish for marlin and GT (giant trevally) or join a local village fish-spearing safari. An incredibly special opportunity is a swimming tour into the Sawa-i-lau Caves (best known as the Blue Lagoon Caves from movie fame), a fantasyland of limestone formations. And if diving's your thing, Fiji is known as the 'soft coral capital of the world'. The dives are, literally, great - there's the Great White Wall and the Great Astrolabe Reef, one of the largest barrier reefs in the world.
