Lifou Isle, New Caledonia

LIFO great place for $15AUSD you can swim at Jinek Bay a short walk up and over the hills worth the 20 min walk Also a bit further on you can walk to Norte Fame Chapel on hill Dont buy shore excursion here you can walk the Island and see it all Locals are friendly food and drinks great! Bring your bathers and snorkel do t walk on jetted bear tender a tad slippery My TOP Tip Don’t buy pre paid excursions anywhere once off ship you will get cheaper and they are always back before ship sails!

Port Vila, Efate, Vanuatu

This place is crazy they call out to you for taxi worth the $5 AUSD for AUSD $50 they will take you anywhere the waterfalls etc Check out the Open Air Market

Dravuni Island, Fiji

Dravuni what a great spot Pack your bathers and snorkel . Boat ride around Island $10 per person but worth it. Massage on the beach, hair braiding also. Take some FJD or AUSD treat yourself to a drink and mangoes. Visit the school and taste Fiji Bitter. Take plenty of water and sunscreen here, wear a hat because it’s blinking well hot. Say Bulla all the time they love it !

Suva, Fiji

Suva what can I say they are modern and clean. Don’t go into butcher shop YUCK We purchased wifi from Tappoo City was $5 and lasted for a week but on Level 4 but only works in that Shopping Centre. Food is also great here. We caught the FREE Shuttle Bus and he dropped us off to Jacks buy something and you get free Wifi that’s the deal here. Locals were friendly just make sure you stay on the streets in view of others.

Savusavu, Fiji

Wow what s culture shock. We caught the tender to the little dock. We walked the streets here, we walked through local market. Lots of tents selling goods again they take FJD and AUSD. New World IGA is where we bought our water it’s very hot and the humidity hits you. Take an umbrella with you for shade. Not much to do here but get off and purchase from 1 of the local tours much cheaper than Princess Cruises and back in time for ship

Lautoka, Fiji Islands

Lautoka we didn’t go into town as the price for shuttle bus was $15 per person . Lovely markets set up in front of shop so we shopped there for our goodies

Noumea, New Caledonia

We found that this place was far to expensive we used AUSD money we bought 2 Chocolate Eclairs and 2 Cokes $28.00 We took the Hop on Hop Off Bus great price and we saw lots. Every port we went into took AUSD but it is good to have some FJD as well as Francs in Noumea
