General:

Fiji is ideally located in the tropics of the southern hemisphere. It lies on the 180 Meridian where the dawning of each new day occurs. Of the 300 islands that make up Fiji, humans inhabit only 100 or so islands and the rest are left as nature reserves. The two major islands in the group are known as Viti Levu and Vanua Levu. Almost 80 percent of the population lives on these two islands.
Fiji is a beautiful country with some of the friendliest people on the face of the Earth! Time moves slowly here, unlike the fast paced lifestyles we are accustomed to. So when you come to Fiji you need to slow down as well. Often time bends to accommodate a way of life, which revels in completely enjoying every precious moment as if it were the last. Fiji truly is Magic!
