Adventure Tours in Fiji

Fiji is a Pacific archipelago famed for its mountainous and rugged landscape. Filled with crystal clear lagoons, white sand beaches, and huge number of eco-adventure activities from scuba diving among corals to mountain climbing, it’s no wonder Fiji quickly climbs to the top of every adventurer’s bucket list. There are only two significantly populated islands (Viti Levu and Vanua Levu), leaving the rest of the 300+ Fijian islands open for real adventures. Set your watch on island time and throw that carefully planned itinerary out the window; say goodbye to the ordinary and "Bula!" to world class surfin’, loungin’, and hikin’ that defines any adventure in Fiji.

A Guide to Adventure Travel in Fiji

Locations

While Fiji is made up of hundreds of islands, there are only a couple of main ones where travelers usually go. Lucky for you, fresh mango and coconut are easy to come by no matter where you stick your umbrella in the sand!

Viti Levu is the home of the two largest cities in Fiji, Suva, and Ba, and is also the largest island in Fiji. The highest mountain in Fiji, Mt. Tomanivi, is located on the eastern coast and is an extinct volcano; bet you’ve never attempted to hike that one! Mud baths, rugby matches, and parasailing are excellent options for a more chilled-out escapade. However, you can have an adventure of the mind by exploring the Sri Siva Subramaniya temple, then gear up and get pumped for jet-setting (literally) to the other islands.

Formerly known as Sandalwood Island, Vanua Levu is one of the region’s best kept secrets, with its largest city being a little more than one street with a bunch of shops. In the south at Savusavu, lagoons and clear waters call to the traveler looking for a tropical playground, complete with scuba diving and snorkeling. Within Vanua Levu or “Big Island,” there are tiny hideaway villages just waiting for the adventurous soul to explore, mountains to be climbed with streams flowing down them, and what seems like endless swaths of pure green forests. 

Called the Garden Island of Fiji, Taveuni is the third largest island in Fiji and one of the few landmasses in the world located on the 180th meridian. It is also one of the few islands where the mongoose was never released; Taveuni is still 80 percent rainforest and full of the natural birdlife that used to inhabit the main islands. It is also home to world-class diving, a great array native fauna and flora, and hundreds of dangerous rushing waterfalls. Dare to take a dip?

Everything about this trip was amazing! The counselors were very nice and had amazing stories to share. It was so fun getting to meet other teenagers from around the US and even from different countries. It was such an amazing opportunity to be able to understand the culture of another country. My parents were both pleased with the level of communication coming from the counselors and the program as well. All information was explicitly given and easy to follow. I learned a lot on this trip about culture, the ocean, and myself.
