The Upper Vavua River
 
Fiji consists of 18,376 square km of land and includes approximately 330 islands of which around 100 are inhabited. The largest island and population centre is Viti Levu, followed by Vanua Levu.  It is located north of New Zealand and northwest of Australia.  The four largest islands, Viti Levu, Vanua Levu, Taveuni and Kadavu are surronded by coral reefs and have mountains located in the central region of each island which cover a large portion of the land mass.

Climate

Fiji has a tropical oceanic climate.  The rainy season, from November to April coincides with the hot and humid months and the cooler months are from May to October.  Humidity tends to be higher in the south and east and much less in the west and north.  Tempertures in January in Suva can be min - max temp: 23 - 30 degrees C or 74-86 degrees F and in July: min - max temp:20-26 degrees C or 68-79 degrees F.  Rainfall also varies widely - in Suva, the average number of rainy days is 240 whereas in Lautoka which lays in the west, the average is 99 days.  Fiji does sit in a cyclone area and they are most likely to occur in the summer months between November and April.

Population

Fiji is perhaps the most cosmopolitan of all South Pacific nations. Its population just under 780,000 is a combination of indigenous Fijians (50%), Indians (46%), with the remainder of the population including Rotumans, Chinese, other Pacific Islanders and Europeans.

Indigenous Fijians have a culture and language that is fairly homogonous with hereditary chiefs and patrilineal descent. Indians first came to Fiji under British rule as indentured labourers over a century ago. 

Activities

Fiji has been called "the soft coral capital of the world" and few seasoned divers will deny that Fiji has some of the finest scuba diving in the South Pacific with top facilities at the best prices. You won't go wrong choosing Fiji. Diving is possible year-round in Fiji, with the marinelife most bountiful from July to November.
Bouma Falls, Taveuni, Fiji

A growing number of surfing camps are off southern and western Viti Levu. There's surf throughout the year with the best swells out of the south from March to October. Windsurfing is possible at a much wider range of locales.

Exciting whitewater rafting on the Upper Navua River is offered. In the past organized ocean kayaking expeditions have been offered among the Yasawas, around Beqa and Kadavu, and in Vanua Levu's Natewa Bay.

All of the high islands offer hiking possibilities and many remote villages are linked by well-used trails. Levuka makes an excellent base with the trail to The Peak beginning right behind the town, and a challenging cross-island trail to Lovoni is nearby. More arduous is the all-day climb to Lake Tagimaucia on Taveuni. For some outer island hiking, walk right around Nananu-i-Ra in under a day, or across Waya or Wayasewa. Kadavu provides more of the same.

Visa

Indian Passport Holders do not require a pre- arranged visa for tourism. Upon arrival, an entry permit valid for 4 months or less is granted - free of cost. The passport must be valid for at least three months beyond the intended period of stay. You must also have a valid return or onward air ticket.

Castaway Island Resort
Castaway Island is truly a special place, the iconic island experience. The staff are very friendly and go out of their way to ensure that you have a good time. Bula time takes a bit of getting used to, ie slow service – but that is all part of the laid back existence. Only downside was the quality of the food, some of it was truly tragic. The hotel offers you a meal plan upon arrival for approximately FJ$110 a day; a total I doubt most people would reach ordering as you go. Other than that it was a fantastic few days and I can highly recommend it. A tip we picked up through Trip Advisor proved quite handy, bring lots of sun screen because you go through quite a bit and it is FJ$30 a bottle on the island. Only go during Australian School holidays if you want to share the island with heaps of kids. Out of approximately 55 rooms on the island there were 76 children. We have a 2 y.o. and a 6 y.o who had a ball.
