Volunteer in Fiji

Soak in the stunning tropical scenery of Fiji while supporting disadvantaged communities

Volunteer in Fiji with Projects Abroad and take part in projects designed to address the needs of local communities. Experience life in this stunning Pacific island while supporting ongoing efforts to help people in disadvantaged areas. Lonely Planet has rated our Projects as the best for sustainable travel in Fiji.

You can join our internationally-recognised Shark Conservation Project, which conducts valuable research about one of the ocean’s most feared and misunderstood predators. You can also support the educational development of young children in under-resourced daycares. Or, immerse yourself fully in the Fijian culture by spending time in a traditional village.

You’ll be living on the largest island, Viti Levu. Our projects are based in Pacific Harbour towards the South of the island. While volunteering in Fiji, you’ll receive 24/7 support from Projects Abroad staff.

Fiji offers visitors some incredible travel opportunities. You can go trekking in the dramatic highland interiors, and bask on the picture-perfect beaches for which Fiji is famous. Experience their colourful festivals, hop between islands on a boat, and scuba dive in crystal-clear waters. You’re spoilt for choice!

Map & Location

Dive into Fiji, an archipelago of more than 330 islands in the South Pacific. With sandy beaches, blue water, and lush rainforest, it’s the very vision of the tropical paradise in your imagination.

But it’s more than that. Fiji is a melting pot of culture, with influences from Polynesia, India, and Europe. With ancient villages and even older traditions dating back 3,500 years, it is steeped in history and culture — a perfect escape for water sports, relaxation, and cultural discovery.

Nadi

Nadi, on the western coast of Viti Levu, is a lively town of around 42,000 residents and a major transport hub for Fiji. It offers a tropical climate with warm temperatures and plenty of places to make the most of it.

The colourful Sri Siva Subramaniya Swami Temple is a prominent landmark in the town due to its large Hindu population. Nadi also provides easy access to the stunning beaches and turquoise waters of nearby islands, marking it high on the bucket list of beach lovers.

Pacific Harbour

The small town of Pacific Harbour, on the southern coast of Viti Levu, is a haven for thrill seekers and beach lovers alike. It has easy access to all the essentials and benefits from a tropical climate with warm temperatures and sunshine year-round.

Pacific Harbour is ideal for sun seekers, with world-class water sports, stunning beaches, and incredible natural beauty. Though it is home to only 2,000 residents, there’s plenty of places to eat, relax, and enjoy the atmosphere.
