Good to Know

Transfers

Prepare for a "wet landing" by wearing water shoes for arrival. If taking a private speedboat, be aware they can be choppy and confirm child-sized life jackets are available.

Hidden Costs

Budget for a 3% credit card surcharge, FJD 14 room service fee, and potentially high costs for paid activities and items from the resort shop.

What to Pack

Bring your own insect repellent, long clothing for hikes, and any sand toys or floaties for the kids, as these are expensive on the island.
