Lonely Planet launches new Fiji guidebook

Sunday 10 May 2009 9:57am

Lonely Planet has launched a new edition of its guide to Fiji, which it claims is the most popular travel book on the market focusing on the Pacific island nation. According to the publishing company, the eighth edition of the Fiji guidebook explores 'well beyond the beach towel'. The islands of Fiji have enjoyed increasing popularity recently because of reduced airfares. The new guide is designed to exploit this by offering prospective travellers a wealth of information about activities and events to enjoy on the islands. Readers will learn about diving opportunities, sustainable travel, rainforests to be explored and villages to visit. Co-ordinating author of the new edition, Dean Starnes, said: 'Most who visit Fiji want little more than a white-sand beach, a cloudless sky and the opportunity to fall into a sun-induced coma under a palm tree. On this score, Fiji doesn't disappoint. 'But from horse riding to mud slinging, there's more to Fiji than can ever be seen from a beach towel, and since most resorts post listings of daily activities on their blackboards, there is little excuse for not sampling some of Fiji's 'other' delights. ' Airlines including Korean Airlines and Air New Zealand offer flights to the south Pacific island.
