Fiji 4-Week
Location
Fiji: Rural Areas
Description
The magic of Fiji's pristine waves is matched only by the world famous friendliness of its people and their diverse, captivating culture. We experience this culture to its fullest by sharing in the communal life of a small village that holds the deep belief that family and friends are the most important things in life.
This program has been designed to bring together like-minded and adventurous students. It combines authentic cultural exchange, meaningful service, and the opportunity to spend a week surfing in one of the most beautiful and sought-after surf destinations on the planet. We also immerse ourselves into villages that exist without cars or stores and gain a deeper understanding of the simple, Fijian way of life. Suitable for all levels (from beginner to expert), our surfing and service program provides great adventures with new friends.
