What to do and see in Viti Levu, Fiji: The Best Free Things to do

April 24, 2022 Alice Mieles

Fiji's largest island, home to capital Suva, offers some wonderful beaches. Palm-fringed Natadola Beach, reputed to be one of the best beaches in the world, is a picture perfect crescent of powdery sand leading to dramatic cliffs. Coconuts hang overhead and the striking azure lagoon entices swimmers.

We spent a great morning at Alice's workshop, visiting and blowing one piece of glass under their supervision. Great team, very professional and lovely people who are passionate and likes sharing their art and skills with visitors. One can bring back home the little creation we made, and buy the colourful and beautiful creations Alice and her skilled Fijian team make. The workshop itself is a lovely place located on the sea side. We're very happy of this rare opportunity to do such a craft and admiring the pieces they design which integrate, play and renew Fijian traditional patterns and objects in a foreign art.

Great coffee, cute boutique, and a relaxing vibe. Love stopping in for a browse at all the unique, mostly handmade, things on offer. The coffee is great and the baked goods are so tasty. Love it here! Can take your coffee/snack to the beach just down the path, too.

Natadola Beach

Considered one of Fiji's best beaches, Natadola features pure white sand, many much-needed shade trees and horses for hire - both gentle rides for children and adult-level treks as well.

Reviewed By PinotandCider - Moama, Australia

Heaven can wait ????. This bay and beach is almost indescribably good. Turquoise blue water with the reef way back, pristine sand, gentle breeze and an Intercontinental Hotel at one end too. We did horse riding, got a massage and had a Pina Colada as well.

Dravuni Island

Reviewed By Grommitsupporter - Hampshire, United Kingdom

Such an experience to spend a day on such a remote island in the South Pacific. The islanders were so welcoming, especially the teachers at their primary school.Good swimming and snorkelling opportunities. Speed boat tours from 10Fijian Dollars upwards. Crystal clear waters. Pity about the islander who imprisoned a sea turtle in a bath and who was charging 5 dollars for tourists to photograph this beautiful and endangered species.

Baravi Handcrafts

Reviewed By TamaraC336 - Melbourne, Australia

I’ve been here many times before and again it hasn’t disappointed. The staff were more than welcoming and were able to answer all questions.. no pushy sales which was great. Big Bula and Vinaka to Bill, our 4yr old is Moana obsessed and he happily played along as Maui’s uncle which made her day ???? Baravi is a must - money goes to the local village

Nausori Highlands

Reviewed By singhShivy - Viti Levu, Fiji

I heard a lot about this place and was warned that the road is not safe. But we set on a cross country journey with my dad. Went through the Sigatoka Valley Road and came right from the Nausori Highlands Road. This is the road least traveled with no road signs hence recommended for 4 wheel drives. You just have to trust your navigation skills as the area does not have network at places and the villages are located were far away. We did had to stop and ask for directions in few villages. But it all was all worth it. The view from the Nausori highland is worth the travel. We spotted out 2 or 3 waterfalls but they were quite off the road. Be ware of the wild horses that just run upon seeing the vehicle. Worth a trip to see the interior of Vitilevu.

Suva Municipal Market

Immerse yourself in the festive, friendly atmosphere of this wonderful street market, where you'll find every tropical fruit and vegetable imaginable.

Reviewed By straitman2 - Melbourne, Australia

We travel to Fiji at least annually and Suva once or twice on each visit. Fiji does not have all the modern facilities of home but the awesome people make up for this. One of the major attractions is that everything isn’t squeaky clean but is great anyway. The Suva Markets are huge and whilst setup for the locals have plenty to offer for tourists also. People just need to remember that they are markets and not a modern shopping centre.

Great area here for any meals, shopping, tours, chemist, spa treatment etc. Just a quick FJ$7 taxi ride from local resorts or grab the Bula Bus. They have entertainment as well so worth a visit any time of the day. Most things are also a lot cheaper than the resorts too, so stock up if you can. Toilets are located upstairs and clean. We didn't get to try all the restaurants so we will be back.

A huge array of foods, flowers, fresh produce and "stuff". Excellent for buying souvenirs at non-tourist prices.
