Visiting Fiji Today
Despite its history of political and racial turmoil, dating back almost 3500 years, the
islands of Fiji have remained an excellent tourist destination. There are so many good
reasons to plan your visit. The island is filled with so many traditions and customs. It is
important, however, that visitors follow the appropriate dress code and etiquette.
The people of Fiji are known as some of the most friendly and hospitable of any of the
islands in the South Pacific. While islanders may disagree on many issues, they are
universal in their recognition of the importance of the tourist trade to their islands’
future. In fact, because tourism has suffered as a result of the turmoil of recent years,
excellent travel bargains are available. For travelers wishing to escape the large number
of tourists often found elsewhere in the South Pacific, Fiji is a perfect destination.
In 2000 almost 300,000 visitors arrived in the islands of Fiji. While the islands are some
of the most popular vacation destinations for citizens of Australia and New Zealand, over
60,000 visitors also arrived from the United States and Canada.
Online Resources
Numerous resources are available online to assist you in planning a vacation in the
islands of Fiji. Prospective visitors should visit the official Web site of the Fiji Visitors
Bureau where you can sign up for their mailing list featuring hot deals and specials. The
Fiji Times offers excellent coverage of the current political climate in the islands.
While English remains the official language of Fiji, the native Fijian language is
preserved and widely spoken. Thus, when you visit Fiji, don’t be surprised when
someone walks up to you and says “bula (mbula)” which means hello and “vinaka vaka
levu (vee naka vaka layvoo)” which means thank you as they show you their
appreciation for your deciding to visit their country.

The South Pacific island nation of Fiji is not only an inviting and beautiful vacation
destination, but also its islands are home to scenic wonders, both natural and man-made,
and are the cradle of ancient myths and legends as well as modern political sagas.

Fiji consists of 333 islands, about 110 of which are inhabited.
The two major islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, account for 87% of the
population of almost 883,000.
The capital, Suva on Viti Levu, serves as Fiji’s principal port. About three-quarters
of Fijians live on Viti Levu’s coasts, either in Suva or in smaller urban centers like
Nadi (tourism) or Lautoka (sugar cane industry).
Fiji’s total land mass is slightly smaller than the state of New Jersey.
Fiji is home to over 4,000 square miles of coral reef, including the Great Astrolabe Reef.
Fiji’s waters are home to over 1,500 species of sea life.
Fiji’s highest point is Mount Tomanivi at 4,344 feet.
Fiji receives between 400,000 and 500,000 tourists annually.
Fiji has 28 airports, but only four of them have paved runways.
English is Fiji’s official language (though Fijian is also spoken).
The literacy rate among adults is almost 94 percent.
According to ancient Fijian mythology, Fiji’s history began in 1500 BC when giant
war canoes arrived from Taganika north of Egypt, carrying Chief Lutunasobasoba
and special cargo: treasures from the Temple of King Soloman in Judah, including a
special box called the “Kato,” meaning case, and “Mana,” meaning Magic, which in
Fijian translates to “Box of Blessings.” When the box toppled into the sea in the
Mamanuca Islands, Lutunasobasoba gave the command not to retrieve it, but his
General Degei returned at a later date and tried. He only succeeded in getting a big
diamond that was outside the box and was immediately cursed and transformed
into a snake with a diamond on his head for all eternity and is trapped in an ocean
cave in Sawa-i-lau in the Yasawas. Fijians believe the box is still buried today in the
waters between Likuliku and Mana and has brought great blessings to the area’s
villages.
In 1643, Dutchman Abel Tasman, known for his explorations in what is now
Australia and New Zealand, sighted Vanua Levu, Fiji’s second largest island, but he
did not land.
In 1789, after being set adrift from Tahiti by the mutineers on his HMS Bounty,
Captain William Bligh and 18 other men were chased by Fijian war canoes through
what is now called Bligh Water. They paddled their 22-foot-long open boat hard and
escaped, making it to Timor.
About 57 percent of Fiji’s population is native Melanesian or Melanesia/Polynesian
mix, while 37 percent is descended from indentured Indians brought to the islands
in the late 19th century by the British to work the sugar cane plantations.
Fiji was a British colony from 1874 to 1970. Fiji became independent on 10 October
1970 and is a member of the British Commonwealth of Nations.
The flag of Fiji consists of the British Union Jack (in its upper left), which is
representative of the country’s long association with Great Britain. The flag’s blue
field is symbolic of the surrounding Pacific Ocean. The coat of arms displays a
golden British lion holding a cocoa pod, as well as panels displaying a palm tree,
sugar cane, bananas, and dove of peace.
Fiji’s main religion is Christian, followed by Hindu and Roman Catholic.
The largest Hindu temple in Fiji is the colorful Sri Siva Subramaniya Temple, one of
the major landmarks in Nadi.
Fiji’s democratic rule has been tested several times over the past four decades by
military and civilian coups. The first two military coups occurred in 1987 over
concerns that the government was being dominated by the Indian community. A
civilian coup occurred in May 2000, followed by the democratic election of Prime
Minister Laisenia Qarase, who was re-elected in May 2006. Qarase was forced out in
December 2006 in a military coup led by Commodore Voreqe Bainimarama, who
subsequently became the interim prime minister. However, Bainimarama has
refused to hold democratic elections.
