If you are looking for a travel destination, one of the most coveted and well known is a little group of islands in the South Pacific known as Fiji. A census showed in 2012 that three-quarters of the people that went to Fiji did so for a vacation, so it is time to see what you are missing out on! Interestingly, of the multitude of islands that make up Fiji, only just over 300 are actually large enough that humans can inhabit, and only about a third of those islands actually are inhabited by humans. In 1970, it became an independent republic from Britain, but for a hundred years previous to their independence, Fiji was actually a Crown Colony.
And, if visiting a tropical paradise isn’t enough, why not do it in style and travel via private yacht? It sounds expensive and time consuming, but it is actually one of the most relaxing, luxurious ways to enjoy a tropical paradise like Fiji. Since there are over 500 inlets in Fiji, there are plenty of ways for your private ship to access the 300 plus islands that are large enough for people to live on. Not only that, but while you are travelling you will be privy to more than 1,500 different species of aquatic life just going between these beautiful islands!
For the more active traveler, there are plenty of activities to indulge on right from your back door on a private yacht. Fantasy Reef is one of the most famous diving venues in the world, and it is right on Waya Island, one of the larger islands in Fiji. Or, if you don’t want to deal with all of that gear, simply go snorkeling – with more than 4,000 miles of reef just under the surface, there are many unbelievable places to go to be exposed to the colorful, breathtaking scenery. And, if you get tired of water sports, never fear, there are still plenty of things to do. For example, the islands are very mountainous because they were formed by volcanic activity that still stirs up every now and again. The highest point is on Mt. Tomanivi at over 4,000 feet, so Fiji is actually a great place to go hiking.
However, if you are looking for a more relaxed vacation, a yacht charter Fiji can accommodate that too. Cruise around to the Blue Lagoon Island or any of the other expansive beaches for the day, and take in the beautiful sights from your lounge chair on the deck of the ship. Relax on the picturesque, sandy beaches that are the image of postcards and paintings.
With a land mass that is slightly less than that of New Jersey in the United States, people don’t travel to Fiji because of the size. What they do travel for is the cultural experience, the scenery, and the sport, and a private yacht will get to you all of those things, no matter what your reason for coming to this tropical paradise.
