Fiji travel is the most popular of the South Pacific tourist destinations. There are large resorts on the main island of Viti Levu, including Sheraton, Marriott, Radisson, Hilton Outrigger and Sofitel. Smaller boutique resorts are found on the picturesque offshore islands and there are many budget resorts for backpackers in the outer islands.

Two extremely remote areas where the more adventurous travellers might be interested in are Rotuma (600km to the north of Nadi) and Lau (200-300km to the east of Suva). Both require several weeks, if not months to explore and have limited tourist infrastructure with basic guesthouse accommodation only but provide a truly unique experience of the old South Seas life.
