Travel to the South Pacific this summer and experience Fiji’s rich blend of indigenous cultures as you explore its tropical landscape and biodiversity. Integrate with your island host community by helping with a variety of construction, cultural, and education projects at the local school. After a traditional sevu sevu welcome ceremony, get to work constructing a small-scale construction project. Help construct a school building, paint the village hall, plant a garden, or teach English to local primary school children. 

Further your engagement with local culture by taking a spear-fishing lesson with a local expert, exploring the marine life of coral reefs, or interviewing elders in the community. Take a boat to neighboring islands to relax on isolated beaches and join in a game of club rugby or volleyball with local teenagers. Snorkel in Fiji’s famous waters, explore lush inland rainforests or remote beaches, and swim under waterfalls.
