where do we keep our 'valuables?"Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji | ||

Those islands are such small, closed communities and with no way to get quickly off the islands, I'd say that the matter of theft is irrelevant. I always had most of my valuables with me in a daypack, and simply left it under a tree if I was out snorkelling. Sometimes I was spending time with other visitors on the island and maybe even with one or two of the resort staff -- it's very informal there. We weren't all in the water at the same time, so people not in the water could keep an eye on things -- against what sort of threat I do not know .. If you're worried, evaluate the situation for yourself once you're on site. You could always leave valuables at the reception. | 1 | |
