Fiji is, quite simply, a paradise and one that has been designated one of the top ten places to visit by National Geographic magazine.The moment you set foot on this mystical, lush and vibrant island you can see why. All Fiji five star hotels pride themselves on offering you the best of everything, from a stunning room, to perfect service and all with a warm and sincere welcome.
Fiji, in the South Pacific Ocean is in fact, made up of over 330 islands, many of which are deserted but those that you have the opportunity of staying on are tropical idylls. Since you are on an island then why not explore all that the ocean has to offer whether it is wind surfing or perhaps snorkeling and as you can imagine with the Astrolabe Reef that stretches for hundreds of square miles you will be spoiled for choice should you choose to go scuba diving. For example, you may want to sample a wreck dive or indeed a cave dive. There are courses available and all the Fiji five star hotels will be able to offer you further information on dive packages. Don't forget the beaches, some of the best in the world, they have delicate white soft sand and lush vegetation and they make the perfect place to rest and relax, play with the family or take some exercise and with its commitment to eco tourism you know that the island is being conserved for later generations.
If you would prefer to remain on the water then there are plenty of cruises around the island you could take. One of the most popular is to the Blue Lagoon Caves. This is a fascinating experience as legend has it that each cave represents a snake head of the god Uluitini and the beauty of the caves is certainly worth a visit.
If you have not come for relaxation then do come and sample some adrenaline sports with the popular jet ski safaris and the treks into the hills ending with a swim in a waterfall. Alternatively try parasailing or shark feeding or even diving with Great Manta Rays.
When the thrill has worn off or perhaps you fancy something a little more sedate then you could take a wonderful hot air balloon ride over the Pacific. Imagine the view as the warm winds buffet you across the ocean and the island, certainly an experience to remember. All these experiences can be booked in any of the Fiji five star hotels and they will furnish you with all the information you require.
After all the adrenaline and exercise perhaps you might wish to try a little pampering and many Fiji five star hotels offer a comprehensive range of treatments to suit your mood, perhaps a massage or a facial or one of the more exotic and local treatments.
When you visit Fiji it would be a shame not to experience the culture and the spirituality that is evident on this island. You may wish to watch a kava, which is a traditional dance in traditional dress, you may choose to marvel at the skilled hands as they weave mats and hats or listen to the language and indeed learn a few words. Don't forget to shop for authentic pottery or other local handicrafts that can be found in many of the villages.
A great part of this island's culture is in the food, all lovingly prepared. You will no doubt appreciate that being an island much of the food is fish and seafood. They also use a good deal of coconuts and coconut cream is used as a sauce combined with various spices, chilies and onions, to create a sublime taste sensation that is used as a sauce for many fish dishes and is called Miti. If you are looking for something a little sweeter then try fruit, freshly prepared such as the mango and papaya that they simply pluck from the trees and serve straight to you.
Whether for business of pleasure Fiji has something for everyone, from the shopper, to the adrenaline junkie, from the romantic to the nature lover but a visit to Fiji is a visit to paradise so plan your return to paradise the moment you get home.
