Floating in the heart of the South Pacific, Fiji has cultivated its well-earned reputation as a slice of heaven. With a tapestry woven from its rich history and vibrant culture, Fiji epitomizes the kind of place from which postcards come, promising families an escape to its welcoming waters and beautiful beaches where adventure intertwines with tranquility.
The Fijian archipelago is made up of about 333 islands. Two of those islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, are home to 87 percent of the population, and only 106 of the others are considered inhabited. Around 90 percent of the territory is water, and scuba divers and snorkelers have nicknamed Fiji the “soft coral capital of the world” because it encompasses more than 1,500 square miles of brilliantly colored reef gardens.
