Fiji - arrive Nadi 5am - leave Nadi 14:00, What to do in that time frame ?

I'm arriving in Nadi at 5am, and leave at 14:00 the same day. I'd like to get out of the airport, and see something so I can add Fiji to my list of places I've seen.

A beach/island would be good, and I don't mind to putz around the town for a little bit, but I'm open to any suggestions !
I'm on a tight budget, so nothing too expensive.

Thanks in advance for any/all suggestions !!

Transfer options to resort on a tight connection

Hello,

I am planning a trip for my nephew and his fiancée for December 2012. They shall be flying into Nadi from Hong Kong by Air Pacific Flight which has now been re-scheduled to arrive into Nadi at 08.00 hours. I had earlier booked a boat for them departing Denarau Marina at 09.00 am to their resort. I have given the new flight arrival time to South Sea Cruises who have suggested that it should generally be possible for them to clear customs by 08.20 and they should be able to make it, but I know it could be dicey – we are presuming a lot too many things – timely arrival of flight, speedy immigration and baggage retrieval. They have said that if they dont make it they shall be put on the next connection, which departs only at 3.00 pm. I dont think I shall make them wait so long for their transfer specially since they are on their honeymoon. So if they miss the boat, I would rathe... more »

One night in Nadi with 5am arrival

I am travelling to Nadi early December to meet friends who are travelling over from New Zealand. I arrive on a 5am flight from LA and need a place to crash for the day/night as my friends don't get to Fiji until the following day.

Would like some advice on the best hotels to stay in and around Nadi, looking for a bit of luxury for the first night! And what's the best way to deal with the early arrival as most hotels only start check-in about 2pm...

Also, looking at getting a Bula pass to get around the Yasawa and Mamanuca Islands, is it best to get one with accommodation included or just do it yourself as we go along?

Much appreciated, Polly
