Valentine Vacation in Fiji
With the onset of Valentine's Day, ascending in February opens up new getaways for romantic adventure. If you and your valentine have island tastes then Fiji is the romantic haven for lovers to rekindle the romantic spark within. Fiji is an easy destination to fall-in-love again as the tropical palm trees and the 14 secluded white sandy beach that cocoon the islets sets the perfect mood for lovers and that too so feasible! If you have come for romance and relaxation then hammocks are tied through trees and beach chairs are laid all the time to laze around.
Fiji wears a necklace of 333 emerald islands and tiny coral or limestone atolls, with rainforests, beaches and waterfalls. Fiji islands are chiefly volcanic. A nature lover's delight, Fiji proudly boasts of her virgin, unique environment of immense beauty and peace where a sunny float in the calm waters of a turquoise lagoon in the day, a stroll in the emerald rainforest at sunset and sitting under a star-flooded sky with crayfish dinner on the beach and the waves kissing your feet - makes you crazy to visit!
For these reasons only Fiji won the second rank as 'the most secluded honeymoon destination in the world' by travel agents of the Conde Nast Bridal Group. Here "life" is a word full of joy where the simple people love to tuck flowers in their hair. Fiji offers an array of activities like horse riding, cruising, hiking, scuba diving, snorkeling, boat rides, mini golf, tennis, bird watching, four hand massage, etc. Fiji is having a bizarre variety of fauna from native mammals with Beka, the fruit bat and a small insect-eating bat, native reptiles including the crested and banded iguana; to the small Kula and Kadavu parrots in the rainforest regions, with the endangered Peregrine falcons and the Fiji Petrel.
