Fiji Women's Tour
City Women / Village Women Tour- Fiji Islands

Each year Lalati Resort hosts a special City Women / Village Women tour which brings women together to share their unique culture.

City Women learn the skills of weaving, hand-line fishing, Fijian dance, plus teach some of their skills to the Village Women.

A generous portion of the tour proceeds goes to Lalati Village where it is used for community improvements.

Tours for Women - Fiji Islands

The women get together each morning for a different adventure.

One morning it may be a boat ride to Lalati Village for a few hours learning to weave mats from leaves. The Fijian women will show you how to start at the beginning by splitting a leaf into strands with a bit of shell.

Hand-line fishing at Nanuku Island.

City Women Crafts.

Afternoons are free for the spa, diving, kayaking, an island tour or relaxation.

Tour Activities for Women

Fire Walkers. Beqa (pronounced “Benga”) is the ancestral home of Fiji Islands’ fierce and famous Fire Walkers.

The mystic gift of walking barefoot on hot rocks and coming out unscathed is a legend that your host Sisa will explain as you take a cocktail cruise down Malumu Bay to the firewalking beach.

Meke. Fiji Islanders are also very spirited about their music and dance. The women from Lalati Village will perform special entertainment for their City Women guests. Of course, the City Women may enter in to the festivities with entertainment of their own!

Lovo Night. With food cooked in an underground hot rock oven, our Lovo nights are a taste of a typical Fijian feast. Starting with Kokoda (pronounced “Koconda”) and finishing with homemade coconut ice- cream (not exactly a Fijian tradition) the middle is filled with pork, fish, chicken, polysomo, dolo, vundi, and a stuffed pumpkin that will have you calling for seconds.

On this tour for women, you'll share this meal in the traditional Fijian style.. on the floor, albeit with cushions for the not-so-hardy City Women.

Fijian Kava. Gathering with the local villagers around the carved wooden bowl, sharing their kava, listening to the music and telling stories, is what our Kava Sessions are all about. A good time is had by all.

Supporting sustainability on remote Beqa Island is what Lalati Resort strives for and the remuneration by the resort for the cultural events helps support the local villages and to keep the Fijian culture alive.

Visiting Lalati will be nothing short of a true Fijian cultural experience.
