Major city · Fiji
Nausori
Skip Nausori as a destination: it is a commuter town for Suva with one airport and a Saturday market. Use it only to fly into Suva or as a 1-hour stop on the way to the Rewa Delta.
Nausori sits on the Rewa River, 20 km north-east of Suva. Its international airport is the secondary gateway to Fiji, but the town itself has no major sights. Most travellers pass through on the way to Suva or the Coral Coast. A Saturday morning market is the one reason to stop.

Rules in force · 6
- Oceania ↗Oceania's island states guard their farms and reefs at the border: tick 'yes' on the arrival card for any food, plant, animal product, soil or used outdoor gear, and let the officer decide.
- Oceania ↗Across the tropical South Pacific, cyclones are possible from November to April: choose insurance that covers weather delays and keep one spare night before a long-haul departure.
- Melanesia ↗Malaria is present in Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and parts of Vanuatu (not Fiji or New Caledonia): ask a travel clinic about tablets before you go.
- Fiji ↗Many passports get a visitor permit on arrival, but rules differ by nationality and require onward travel: check the Fiji Immigration Department for your passport before booking.
- Fiji ↗Declare food, plant and animal products on arrival; Fiji enforces biosecurity checks at the airport.
- Fiji ↗Visiting a village: go with a guide or invitation, cover shoulders and knees, remove hats, and bring kava (yaqona) for the sevusevu welcome.
