Help 3 days in Fiji??

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji

Hello,

I have 3 days only in Fiji, and my main focus will be photography.

Can anyone suggest where I should stay for the best in photography, scenery and the people.

Will be travelling alone. thank you....

3 days in Fiji, now that's a shame. Why didn't you include more days in Fiji in your plans, its a beautiful country!

You will most likely fly into Nadi - I suggest GTFO of there ASAP..

For good photography... If you have money, hire a taxi to drive you around to places.

If you don't have money, and decide to stay in Nadi, there's not much to photograph other than the indian temple - WHICH DOES NOT OFFICIALLY ALLOW PHOTOGRAPHY!

Good luck with your attempt to visit Fiji in 3 days. I really do think you have made an mistake by not staying longer.

What photography areas are you interested in? islands, water, villages? have you thought aboat a boat for 3 days to the islands including meals?
what dates are you there?

hey, i am planing on doing something similar in Fiji too(photography). Any recomendation??
I have 3 days i think PNG is too short for that and so it New Zealand. So i might opt for Fiji.
Not sure whats there to there besides beaches.

Well considering Fiji has hundreds of islands, and it takes a long time to get to most of them, your timeframes are just too tiny.

dinduboy: Like how come NZ and PNG are too big for a 3 day visit but Fiji isn't? I mean, as numbers I bet those countries have bigger figures, but you gotta account those hundreds of islands and long transfer times to really understand how much time do you need.

I'd recommend no less than 2 weeks.
