Fiji
Drifting down Fiji’s Navua River, surrounded by staggering rock crevices measuring up to 40 metres high and at times less than five metres apart, interconnected by the lush rainforest canopy and dangling vines fit for the most epic of Tarzan swings, there is no sound besides the trickling waterfalls your raft idly passes by, the splash of your paddle and the whispered stories of the guides sharing local legends of nature, warfare and love.
This island paradise is synonymous with swaying palms, postcard-perfect beaches, resort pools and happy hour cocktails. However, inland Fiji redefines this South Pacific family-favourite; an undiscovered gem of raging rivers and waterfalls, volcanic mountains and wild jungle, local villages where it feels as though time has stopped. A side of Fiji often ignored but no less spectacular.
