Best place to exchange currency - Fiji trip :)

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji

Hi there!
Am going to Fiji & will be spending half my time on the islands where there aren't any atm's.
I wanted to know if it's best to change my australian dollars in oz, the nadi airport or nadi town - where are usually the best rates?
Thanks!

Nadi town gives the best rates... Nadi airport gives pretty good rates too. Each currency exchange at Nadi airport offer different rates, Western Union in departures (not WU arrivals) gives the best rate out of all of them (departure is only a short walk from arrivals)... Oz gives the worst rate (well Melbourne does anyway)... Enjoy your holiday! :)
