Planning Your Next Fiji Vacation On A Budget
Author: Hugh McInnes
Holidays to Fiji are a lot more budget friendly than you think and it's a wonderful way to spend your vacation in fun, sun and relaxation with the option of a little excitement thrown into the mix!
There are a number of budget vacation options available in Fiji - from backpacking to affordable hotels. If you plan your accommodation well you'll be able to still eat well and maybe even save enough money for a few nights of privacy and resort fun before catching your flight home.
The cities of Nadi and Suva offer many accommodation options for the traveler looking for relaxation and a few nights of fun. Most of the hotels also have eateries right on the site, as well as a bar for party nights. You can shop, sleep or just enjoy relaxing next to the pool or the nearby beaches. Some of the accommodation also offers a guest kitchen so you can buy food at the local grocery store and cook it yourself.
As for dining on a budget, you can either choose the local diner or, depending on the hotels amenities, buy the food from a local grocery store and cook it yourself. Meals are also offered out of family homes and are great, but you must be aware you will not have much choice in what you are served. There are also small eating places you can dine on a budget at nearby markets if you want a quick meal you don't have to cook.
You can entertain yourself cheaply while on your Fiji vacation by exploring the beaches at no cost. Take your own drinks and snacks, find a cove or spot on the sand and spend the day swimming and reading. This is also a great time to write that book you've always wanted to be famous for. Maybe the one about this vacation!
If you take your own snorkeling equipment it won't cost you anything to explore the clear waters and shallows along the beaches. You'll be amazed at what you see and how time can slip away without you even noticing. There's nothing more relaxing than spending a day exploring the water and you'll sleep better than you have in a long time.
At Nadi Bay beach area you'll discover a great beach for hiking, especially at low tide. It is a tidal beach so you can explore your way around and take pictures. It can be a wide beach at low tide so be prepared to walk a lot and when the tide starts to come in make sure you're not sleeping in the sand near the surf. You'll get a rude awakening with the first wave!
For the best snorkeling close by try Mamanvca Island. It's worth the low cost to get there. You can sign on for a tour with one of the local outfits as a group for the best possible price. This is a good area for clear viewing of Fiji's underwater fish and coral. The underwater life is so amazing you'll never want to get out of the water. Also be sure to wear sunblock to make sure you don't get burnt.

There is so much to do or not do in Fiji you'll save an amazing amount of money if you watch what you spend it on. Don't party too much and don't pay for everyone else to party! Eat light and enjoy the beaches. Walk a lot and see what the islands have to offer. You can choose one island, spend your time there and not spend your cash island hopping. It's fun, it's relaxing and it's the most economical Fiji vacation you can have. Enjoy! I did.

A Fiji Vacation Package To Navini Island
Author: Peter R Stewart
Why not take a Fiji Vacation Package to Navini Island, it would be an excellent choice for a Fiji honeymoon, and you would have little difficulty putting together a Fiji honeymoon package with any well known travel agent. Many people take a Fiji vacation every year, but the trick is to get the right degree of exclusivity and relaxation, and Navini has all of that.
Navini is one of the smallest island resorts close to Nadi, on that side of Viti Levu, and it is a private resort, where you can expect a casual and thoroughly relaxed time. The closeness to the international airport makes it an obvious choice for the first few days of relaxation after stepping off a long haul flight from say Europe, before beginning a sweep of the South Pacific.
You will be met by Navini Island Resort staff at the airport and within an hour you will be at Navini, and even swimming off the beach. There are no crowds because there are no trippers on this Fiji Vacation Package.
The island is small, you can wander round it in 10 minutes, because Navini is a coral cay and is only ever a few feet above the sea. It isn't just coral, although of course the beautiful coral sand and the turquoise ocean are an outstanding feature. There are coconut palms, and lots of shade, and masses of tropical flowers.
Navini has only 12 bures including a honeymoon bure, all on the beach and overlooking the coral reef, which makes it the perfect start to your Fiji honeymoon. There are 36 island staff which outnumbers the guests so you will get to know the smiling Fijian staff and appreciate their infectious enthusiasm and laughter, and also appreciate their culture and generous hospitality which is unequalled anywhere.
At Navini Island your time is your own. It may be you decide to go snorkelling on the bright multicoloured reef, visit a local village on a complimentary morning outing, kayak around the island, visit Nadi town on a shopping trip, or perhaps just lie in the shade enjoying the amazing views.
There are other activities but if this is your Fiji Honeymoon, or a Fiji vacation Package to escape the stresses of 21st Century life you may want to do nothing at all. You could of course sail a hobycat, a sailboard, a spyboard or a sea cycle. All these activities cost you nothing. If you feel energetic there is the afternoon volleyball game, or you could read a book from the resort library or perhaps even a massage.
You can of course go scuba diving, para sailing or sports fishing, for which there is a fee albeit a modest one.
As you will realise Navini Island gives you a very laid back exclusive Fiji vacation package and could be a most delightful choice for your Fiji honeymoon.
Apart from accommodation, which is very comfortable if slightly Spartan, food and drink feature highly on any vacation package, and you will not be disappointed.
Navini's dining room is open air beautifully situated between the tropical gardens and the turquoise sea. The food is a mix between traditional Fijian and innovative cuisine. There are choices at all times, and always beautiful fresh fish and local fruit, everything cooked in the kitchen.
Once a week there is a traditional Fijian night with a 'lovo' which is food cooked underground, and then a kava ceremony with Fijian singing by the staff.
You will go to Navini island for your Fijian Vacation Package or that once in a lifetime Fijian Honeymoon, and arrive as a guest and leave feeling you have made many friends.
