No shoes required here if you want to live like the locals......Almost all the Fijians are African Americans living on the individual Islands throughout Fiji and there feet are huge, wide and flat. Maybe from walking around barefoot all their lives.... This place was an amazing place to visit & surf but remember that it is a poor country(3rd world) as well. The Fijians love to free dive and it was the clearest most unique free dives I have ever been on. Big Blue Star Fish all over and sea snakes as well. You can get your fill of big surf on any of the outer reefs like cloud break or there are some inside breaks that I surfed called hideaways. really shallow but super fun head high surf that reeled off. If you want to experience Island life then check into the Wayland islands. You will be living among 30-40 Fijians on a remote island. You can see the moon rise at night since you're on that side of the world and its pretty cool stuff. They will blow the Conch shell when its lunch or dinner time. The food was hit or miss but try the kava....It looks like muddy water from a root but it's rude not to accept and remember......They use to be cannibalistic people not too long ago.
