Day 8: Transfer to Nadi International Airport for return flight home

Flights currently departing Nadi are in the late evening with an arrival in Los Angeles this same day, mid-afternoon. Do not book any connections from the Los Angeles Airport within 2 hours of your arrival time. We recommend 3+ hours as being safer.

OPTIONAL EXTENSIONS: You may wish to extend your trip in Fiji and enjoy the many other activities the islands have to offer or just relax at one of the many resorts. Here are a few ideas we have come up with:

Sailing Safari: Board the Spirit of the Pacific and set sail for the Yasawa islands. We'll settle into the village, explore the island, and snorkel the stunning coral gardens right off the beach. Sleep ashore on a palm-fringed bay in traditional two-person Fijian bures. Spend the days basking in Paradise, trekking the island, sailing the fabulous reefs, snorkeling and swimming in the bays. We will also celebrate in traditional dance and feast ceremonies.

Treasure Island: This tropical dream island is surrounded by a marine sanctuary, which offers a variety of water sports and activities for the entire family. Each bure looks out to the sea and are only a few steps from the white sand beach that circles the island.

Luxury Resort: Jean-Michel Cousteau Resort is of the most internationally appealing, sublimely romantic and uniquely exclusive destinations in the South Pacific. With a name like Cousteau you'd expect some underwater options to be on tap, and you'd be right. This warm and intimate resort is an elegant choice for adventure travelers, family vacations and first or second honeymoons.

Dive Specialist: The Garden Island Resort on Taveuni is home to the Rainbow Reef, one of the world's greatest displays of soft coral. In short, scuba diving in Taveuni is world class. In just 15-20 minutes custom dive vessels will whisk you away to famous dive sites such as the Great White Wall, The Ledge, Annie's Bommie, Blue Ribbon Eel Reef, and more.
