Suva Handicraft Center: Handicrafts

by geanster

Places like Jack's are very touristy t-shirt/gifts/handicraft shops. They're nice and clean and air-conditioned, but the bargaining is at a minimum there and the prices are marked up. Of course, I learned that you CAN talk them down if you want to, they'll usually go down a couple of bucks on things, but if you really like to haggle, head to the local handicraft shops. I enjoyed wandering around the Suva Handicraft Center even though I was warned not to give anyone my name as they would carve it on a boat or something and try to get me to buy it. I was overwhelmed with the guys working some of the booths introducing themselves and offering to give me a tour of the town. Friendly people.Also, my restaurant tip is located in this center as well... As little as you can haggle down to.

Suva / Lautoka Markets: Feed a nation!

by IcemanNZL

Suva and Lautoka markets are great for buying fresh fruit and veges. You can often barter with the locals and get more for you dollar.Aside from the cheap prices you will also see a bit of Fijian culture, markets are great to look around and get supplies for a trip out to one of the island resorts.If you get the opportunity to try Kava in a market area or anywhere in Fiji i would suggest you try it. It takes and looks like muddy water but is very alcoholic and makes your teeth go numb.

Try Sigatoka for shopping

by bjmd22

If you get annoyed in Nadi or Suva by the crowds, try Sigatoka. It is between Nadi and Suva. There is not as many shops, but there is about the same kind of stuff, and even a market.
