When surfing is the main goal of your Fiji holidays, you can find some of the best waves in the world to ride and develop your skills here. With hundreds of islands making up the country of Fiji in the South Pacific, you can plan a Fiji surfing trip that fits your budget, your level of skill, and your choice of accommodations. "It's like heaven on earth," according to Mick Fanning, a three time world surfing champion, who says Fiji is definitely a place to visit.

Since 2010, all waves in Fiji are accessible to anyone who visits the area, a change since the days when specific waves were considered proprietary to certain resorts. Each island that comprises Fiji has easy access to beaches with waves you might want to try, but the areas near some of the best surfing sites are located off Nadi on Viti Levu, the main island of Fiji. Here you will find the Mamanuca chain of 20 islands, which include the popular private island of Namotu.
