WHAT TO DO?
Wailoaloa Beach
Just a short drive from Nadi is Wailoaloa beach, one of the fastest developing tourist destinations in Fiji. With a tranquil ocean outlook and stunning views towards the mountains, it makes an excellent spot for a beach stroll. Along this stretch of beach, you’ll also find an enclave of laid-back affordable bars and eateries where locals, expats and travellers alike, all mingle to enjoy the sunsets while listening to local live music.
Garden of the Sleeping Giant
Often regarded as one of the best kept horticultural secrets in the South Pacific, a trip to the Garden of the Sleeping Giant, nestled beneath the Sleeping Giant mountain in the Nausori Highlands, is a pleasant experience for those interested in flora and fauna.
Founded by actor Raymond Burr (aka Perry Mason), the botanical gardens boast a wonderful collection of orchids and other flowering plants, with trails that meander through lowland rainforest and manicured gardens. It is one of Nadi’s most popular tourist attractions.
Vuda Boat Shed
Go where the locals go! The Boatshed Restaurant at Vuda Marina is a popular dining venue for locals and yachties and for good reason. Located on the point at Vuda Marina, the sunset bar is a great spot for laid-back food and drink while watching the sun setting over the water.
Off the Beaten Track
Around Nadi, there’s stunning landscapes and you can take in this scenery with an adrenaline rush by getting off the beaten track with a Go Dirty Quad Bike guided tour. Discover remote forests, enriching culture, waterfalls, mud-baths and hot springs while zipping around on a quad bike.
