The islands have been a popular cruise destination from the 1950s, but land-based tourism was forbidden. Since then the popularity of the islands has been growing and they moved from back-packer heaven to mainstream destination. New development is unavoidable, but the wonderful island scenery has not been touched and there is more than enough coastline to go around. Resort are tend to be isolated. most of the island villages are without electricity or running water. But there is fresh water everywhere, so the locals know how to survive.

Indeed many of the resort are owned and operated by friendly islanders, retaining a rustic charm that combines with the majestic scenery to ensure the visitors Yasawas feel because they discover the real ‘South Pacific’. Photo by: Alasdair Milne

Roughly 470 km north of Fiji, this small group – Rotuma Island plus four offshore islets – is a Fijian territory and home to the unique race known as Rotumans. The people there more closely resemble Polynesians. Dependency status allows the island more political autonomy than other parts of Fiji. It is possible to visit this isolated island, though Rotumans voted against opening the place up to tourism as recently as 1985. Photo by: DS355

Even now the door is barely open, with visits strictly rationed by Rotuman elders who are determined that their island paradise will not be spoiled by the intrusive demands of mass tourism. The people are gracious, but expect visitors to respect their customs and be modest in behaviour and dress. There are no hotels or resorts on Rotuma, but simple accommodation can be found. The chosen visitor will find a volcanic island with many small cones that is covered with lush vegetation. It has a large reef, spectacular corals, abundant sea life (including dolphins and turtles) and some of the best and untouched beaches in all Fiji. Photo by: kiaa_ll

When to go: The rainy season is best avoided, so make it April to October. Even then the humidity may come as a shock, but cool sea breezes can dilute the impact. Population: 2,800. How to get there: Fly in to the airstrip on the north shore on Air Fiji’s weekly flight from Suva. Photo by: kiaa_ll

Mamanuca Archipelago is scattered off Nadi Bay on Viti Levu‘s west coast. There are about 20 islands, but be careful which one you choose – some are completely covered during high tide. The Mamanuca Islands are serious tourist attractions, offering many coral islets to explore and numerous beach resorts to suit every pocket, plus all the water-sports and diving activities for which Fiji is famous. Most resorts offer complementary kayaks, hobby cats and reef snorkeling trips. Photo by: abbietabbie

These are not the most beautiful islands you will ever see, but the beaches are fabulous with turquoise crystal waters. The resort islands are Malolo, Beachcomber, Mana, Malolo Lailai, Monu, Monuriki, Navini, Tavarua, Tavua, Tokoriki and Treasure Island. The inner Mamanucas consist of small, flat and coral isles. The middle islands are the largest and offer gentle hills with paths and summits with breathtaking views over the archipelago and the opportunity to find less-crowded beaches. The outer islands are more rocked, with isolated bays and volcanic rocks. They have traditional fishing villages. They are for people trying to get far from the madding crowd. Photo by: _Zinni_

You will pay a premium to holiday on the Mamanuca Islands, but at many resorts you will share your island with more than enough people. Besides, as soon as you’ve settled comfortably into your space on the beach lots of day-trippers may suddenly invade from the mainland – a budget treat for them and a pain for you. But this is traditional Fijian culture you are looking for. Photo by: ranicas

When to go: All round the year – the weather is sunny, the seas calm and breezes cooling. Population: 2,100 (2007). Photo by: ~marcus~
