Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji

Hello im my travel around the world i would like to stop in fiji for 1 week to take my advanced open water and to discover that great islands with my girldfriend, i dont want to spend a lot of money there because our travel will take more than 5 months,
any advice to see the diferent islands where to dive and where to sleep nice with good prices?
thank you in advance!

hi i dived off mana island and it was fab but a rip off price with ratukinis backpackers! you can do your advanced a lot cheaper outside of fiji, but its up to you. it seemed to me that if you paid more for a resort you got a better deal but it all depends on your budget. i did my rescue and dive master in honduras utila of course same as everyone else but it was pretty cheap and lovely in mexico in playa del carmen too. i'm a dive bore after my round the world trip so let me know if you want to know some good places
