A
Suva Curio & Handicraft Centre
This crafts market has endless stalls and is an interesting place to wander through. It can offer some fantastic buys but be prepared to bargain! Not all artefacts are as genuine as the vendor would like you to believe; if you aren't an antique expert, only pay what the object is worth to you.

Hot Bread Kitchen
Savusavu has a few grocery stores including a well-stocked Morris Hedstrom Supermarket. The daily market has fruit and veggies as well as lots and lots of kava (yaqona) root, used to make the narcotic drink of the same name. The Hot Bread Kitchen has fresh loaves daily.

C
Handicraft Market
You may pick up something more authentic at the handicraft market but check out the prices in the shops beforehand to ensure you really are getting a bargain. Be aware that wooden items are unlikely to have been treated and may need to be quarantined once you get home.

Produce Market
Nadi has a large produce market which sells lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. Good-quality meat, however, is not so easy to come by. There are several large supermarkets and bakeries downtown as well as along the Queens Road at the Colonial Plaza and at Namaka.

Jack's Handicrafts
Unashamedly aimed at the tourist wallet, this outlet of Jack's is colossal in size and contents. Crafts, clothing, jewellery and house items are sold at reasonable prices but it's all fairly mass-produced and you're unlikely to find anything truly unique here.

Free Shop
Supported by the UN Development Program, the Free Shop sells excellent jewellery, clothing and crafts by local artists. Each item is given a small write-up to provide background information on the piece. Prices are also reasonable.

Government Crafts Centre
