Perfect climate, exotic location, lush vegetation and breathtaking views - what better combination for a golfing vacation in a South Pacific paradise. Golf in the Fiji Islands has come a long way since the days when Vijay Singh was practising here. There are now three championship golf courses in Fiji, all on the main island of Viti Levu. Several smaller public courses can be found around Viti Levu and one each on Vanua Levu and Taveuni. The Shangri-La Fijian Resort and Naviti Resort in West Viti Levu and the exclusive Wakaya Island Club and Naigani Island Resort in the Eastern Islands have their own private courses. Toberua Island Resort has a nine-hole course on the beach at low tide!
