Church in Fiji

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji

Perhaps this unusual - but we will be in the Coral Coast of Fiji on a Sunday, and would love to visit and worship a local church - any recommendations please?

Several in Sigatoka, down the road a bit. But the place you are staying will almost surely have some arrangement in place to take their visitors to church, it is a popular thing to do. E-mail them and ask for more info on this.

I have done exactly as Raro suggested a few years ago, by asking a staff member at the hotel. When he learned that my 40th birthday was upcoming, he organised a visit to his village, a lovo was made and we drank kava with the chief. The kids played soccer with the local kids and then we all went to church afterwards (and Im not Christian). The harmonies in the choir were haunting and brilliant.That evening was the highlight of our Fiji trip.
