10 Reasons to Skip Hawaii and Choose Fiji Instead
Two years of COVID travel restrictions bound us to our homes apart from two short, but careful, adventures by car. It was long past time for a real adventure. Snorkeling is a shared passion and my guy and I initially set our sights on Maui for the opportunity to go to Molokini Atoll.
I started researching accommodations only to run into remarkably high prices ($2300 minimum for six nights’ lodging). Clearly lots of travelers had Maui on their minds. Knowing that airlines often offer vacation bundles, we looked at Air Tahiti Nui and Fiji Airways because both island nations have direct flights from LAX.
Fiji Airways offered an economical package including flights, seven nights of resort accommodations (including two meals per day!), plus airport transfers for less than $1,800 per person. Sold!
Leaving from LAX, you travel to and from Fiji on a 10-hour overnight flight. Fiji Airways has a modern fleet of planes with individual power chargers and screens on the back of each seat. It also offers one of the nicest airline blankets I’ve ever experienced!
In no particular order, here are 10 reasons to skip Hawaii and travel to Fiji instead. (Full disclosure: I love Hawaii and lived there for a time. In fact, I was the first from my university to graduate with the home state of Hawaii, thanks to my father’s military duty station at the time.)
Happy people – Fijian people are happy, cheerful people eager to see that you have a good time while visiting their country. They speak English, but frequently speak their local language amongst each other.
Coral – Our guides took us to multiple reefs, each with their own characteristics like table corals, which we had not seen before. There was no evidence of coral bleaching and using coral-safe sunscreen is highly encouraged to keep the reefs healthy.
Sea life – The reefs were teeming with life with all ranges of color and form among the fish, brilliant cobalt blue sea stars, strange and interesting sea cucumbers, giant clams, octopus and even sharks (at a safe distance, thank you!)
Beaches – With 300 islands, a variety of beaches await you. The sea water was warmer than the pool water in early May. Although the beach at our resort had a lot of sandy churn from the incoming waves, the outer islands featured tranquil water with white, sandy beaches.
Resorts – Fiji offers everything from family-friendly resorts to honeymoon getaways or overwater bungalows. The country features more than 300 islands with residents on about 110 of them.
Music – The Fijian people seem to be gifted with amazing voices. Music is all around you and the local songs and dances will leave you smiling.
Excursions – The main airport is Nadi on the island of Viti Levu. Nearby Port Denerau is one of several launching points for inter-island or reef excursions. You can also island hop by water taxi or small planes.
Kava – Become an honorary Fijian by trying this local drink that has calming effects. It’s not a drug, but drinking kava mellows you out. I won’t lie, it tastes sort of like dirty mushroom water. But hey, you’re in Fiji…why not partake in the local tradition of a kava ceremony?
Relaxation – You won’t find bustling malls, casinos or rowdy nightclubs. A vacation in Fiji is a chance to unplug, relax and enjoy. If you want to explore the outer islands, go sailing or both, it is easy to arrange!
Sunsets – Every night was a chance to experience a stunning overwater sunset. Each postcard-worthy snapshot featured ever changing colors reflected on the glistening water, framed by palm trees.
If you are a beer or cocktail person, I’d offer an eleventh entry – the local Fiji Gold beer is quite good as are the locally-inspired cocktails.
So, what are you waiting for? Fiji is welcoming and the local people are eager to make sure you have a good visit.
