Vatia Lailai or Yanuca info?Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji | ||
I am trying to dredge up information on either island, but mostly the penninsula between the two. I know there are several upscale resorts on both islands, and that both islands look like they have great diving, but that's about it. Has anyone dove/bodysurfed in the area, or know anything at all about the area in general, other than about the Surf and Shangri-la resorts? I am looking to spend 2-3days diving, and it would be ideal if the area had other attractions/laid back atmosphere for the one non-diver in the party. Any help would be terrific! | ||
Dunno about the other island but Yanuca is wholly occupied by the Shangri-la Fijian hotel. Activities at the Fijian - http://www.shangri-la.com/en/property/yanucaisland/fijianresort/health/activity/inandonthewater To surf in the area, you will need to take a boat beyond the reef protecting the island and this can be organised at the dive centre. | 1 | |
Your best bet might be to stay at or near the Hideaway Resort - see here - http://www.destination360.com/australia-south-pacific/fiji/fiji-surfing.php | 2 | |
Thanks Mandja, but I am not looking to really do surfing, but just body surfing. I am more interested in the areas, as the LP and Barefoot guides both leave the peninsula out completely. | 3 | |
"I am more interested in the..., as the LP and Barefoot guides both leave the peninsula out completely" Probably because it's Private Property -as is all land in Fiji. | 4 | |
