Fiji

Accommodation

Seashell Cove Surf And Dive Resort: http://www.seashellresort.com
We stayed here for 3 weeks. I'd recommend it as a good place to start your trip and as a good base if you want to surf. There's a standard dormitory and when we were there you could camp. They don't mention camping on their Web site so check with them first. Take your own tent if you do want to camp. (You get to use the same facilities as you would in the dorm.)

Have a look and make up your own mind.

Steve, Al and I did our PADI Open Water Diver courses here. We'd never dived before and loved it. Fantastic underwater scenery and coral reefs. Located in the Seashell Cove Surf And Dive Resort.
