You do know that Fiji has over 300 islands, do you? And these islands are all bountiful and surrounded by white sand beaches and clear blue water. If your idea of paradise is that it is instagrammable, Fiji is your kind of paradise. The beaches are picture perfect; they’re like the postcards you like sending out to friends. You’ll also marvel at the breathtaking scene at sunrise and sunset. You’ll love walking by the beach in the early morning at late in the afternoon when the sun is about to set. With all the beauty surrounding you, you’ll want to take a dip in the cool blue waters of Fiji’s beaches!

The Warm Breeze at the Beach

Beaches are relaxing. But there are times when they’re too hot for comfort, especially in the middle of the day when the sun is high up. But in Fiji, the beaches are covered with coconut trees, so the breeze is as cool as it can be. Perfect for lazing around with a cold drink in your hand. If you can find a hammock, it will be the perfect vacation for you!

The cool beaches aren’t the only wonders that await you in Fiji. You’ll also find a lot of natural attractions, like the hot springs and the mud pool. If you like to warm up your body a little, the hot springs should be on top of your list. This is ideal for travelers who spend most of their time exposed to cold temperatures (Canadians, for example). If you haven’t tried dipping in a mud pool yet, this is your chance to. You don’t need to join the mud fight; you just have to get into the pool and cover yourself with warm mud. Experts say mud is good for the skin, so why not try out this unique pool experience?

Experience the Unique Kava Ceremony
