Location of Shangri-La's Fijian Resort & Spa



Guide to Coral Coast

The Coral Coast is 80 kilometres of barrier reef beaches on the sheltered southern side of Vitu Levu about halfway between Nadi and Suva. The temperate climate and great variety of accommodation- from self contained 'bure' cottages to international five star resorts- make it a popular tourist retreat. The resorts offer great recreation facilities, restaurants, cultural performances and nightlife, while the pristine waters and reefs create an underwater paradise for snorkeling and diving. You can throw in a line with the locals or take out a charter vessel for game fishing.

There are some spectacular surf beaches too, and for those wanting to take in some nature, history and culture- visit the Sigatoka Sand Dunes, where shifting sands and archaeological digs continue to reveal skeletons and pottery artefacts dating back to 15BC or the Kula Eco-Park in Korotogo which displays rarely seen indigenous species. Head for the hills into the beautiful Sigatoka Valley, aptly named the salad bowl of Fiji, a colourful patchwork of agricultural fields, Fijian villages, Indian settlements, temples and volcanic hills. It offers spectacular scenery and a fascinating history of the Tongan tribes who were the last to resist Christianity.

At Tavuni Hill you can walk amongst the ruins of an ancient fort. The cave tour follows the Tongan trail to Naihehe Caves to see the spectacular rock formations and awesome reminders of the past. The same tour takes you for a river ride on traditional bamboo rafts. There is also a waterfall tour where you can learn about plant medicines on a rainforest trek, participate in authentic ceremonies with a village chief and swim in a beautiful tropical waterfall.

For a little island fun, Robinson Crusoe Island is fringed with white sandy beaches, and offers great snorkelling and Pacific isle entertainment. To get there, take a jungle boat ride or a sea plane which is based on the river at Sigatoka Town. It is also possible to enjoy scenic flights of the coast and valley or charter a small plane for airport transfers.

In the bustling town of Sigatoka, locals and tourists blend together when eating, shopping and socialising. Farmers barter their wares in the central market-place and there are duty free shops, supermarkets, tailors, bars and cafes. There are quaint roadside markets right along the Coral Coast stretch, so even those just driving through will be able to enjoy this lovely area.
