Finding Paradise in Fiji

Last Stop in Paradise by Travelling Lousies!

Friendly people, pristine beaches, and cheap luxury - a trip to Fiji will completely spoil you. You’ll never be the same - everywhere you go you’ll expect to be greeted by people singing on the shore, followed by a beach almost all to yourself.

Travelling Lousies! spent 18 days in the Yasawa Islands, a region popular with backpackers and other travelers who are seeking paradise on any budget.

Here’s how they began their trip:

“We hit Fiji a week ago now and spent 1 night on the mainland before we took the Yasawa Flyer (a huge catamaran containing a million backpackers and a few tourists) off to Nanuya Island Resort on the island of Nanuya Lailai. The island is idyllic with clear blue waters, palms, beautiful sandy beaches, glorious weather and very few other people!” (more…)

Then they headed to Waya:

“As for what we did….well more of the same; snorkelling was good with a great house reef just off the beach with some fantastic coral life and an array of fishies. Marissa added to the fishing tally by catching a big red cod hand line fishing (which she enjoyed trying to eat the next day….far too big) and many more books were read.” (more…)

And swam with Manta Rays in Naviti:

“The highlight was definitely a long swim alongside some big Manta Rays a stones throw from Botaira resort. Apparently it is slightly unseasonal for them to be around the island at the moment but we were lucky to have experienced their gracefullness (is that a word?) in the water with a few others as 4 large mantas glided around us accompanied by their cleaner fish! Some of the big guys were up to 2.5m across and certainly didn’t mind you snorkelling alongside of them - that was if you could keep up as they were enjoying swimming against the tide! ” (more…)
