Things to take on a holiday to Fiji
If your next holiday happens to be Fiji then you need to make sure that you plan the holiday properly. You have to make sure that you are prepared for all kinds of things when you get there. The island of Fiji is to the North West of the coast of Australia in the South pacific. It is snap bang in the middle of the tropics so you need to be prepared for the climate and weather conditions to start with.
Depending on the time of year you will have anything from warm and temperate conditions in the winter or hot and humid conditions during the summer. Either way, it’s important to pack the sunscreen for the outdoors. The humidity of the tropics usually means there’ll be bugs so bug spray is also a good idea. Bites are inevitable, so you may need to include ointments in your traveller’s first aid kit.
The tropics are the perfect place for you to go scuba diving. Person who comes with Fiji holiday packages all inclusive and if you are able to bring your own snorkelling gear you should do so. It will save you the cost of having to rent or buy the equipment when you get there. The memories of your underwater experience will stay with you forever, but if you want to share it with everyone else then you can look into purchasing an underwater camera or perhaps even a watertight casing for your own camera so you can take pictures under water.
The power system in Fiji runs on 110 volts as opposed to the normal 220 volts in other parts of the world. If your country currently runs on a 110 volt power supply you will be fine as all your electronic equipment is already set for it. However, your hairdryer, Laptop or Cellphone charger won’t work properly if you plug it in to a wall socket. You can purchase a power convertor at any local hardware store before you leave if you are not lucky enough to have one supplied by the hotel you are staying at.
If you are a drinker, then you might want to bring the maximum allowable amount of alcohol with you for the trip. Drinks at the resorts tend to be expensive, and it can eat into your budget if that is where you are spending your money.
You should check the current exchange rate before you go, as you may end up short changing yourself with money if you don’t account for the exchange. You can find the current exchange rate from any online source that offers a list of rates, and you can confirm the details with your local travel agent as well.
