Quiz: Which Fijian Island Should You Be Stranded On?

You want to experience the island lifestyle, but need the comforts and conveniences of a mainland destination to keep you happy.

The biggest decision you want to have to make on a holiday is whether to have a Peña Colada or a Mai Tai before your all-inclusive buffet dinner. You travel with your kids and prefer staying in big resorts with plenty of activities, restaurants, and amenities that cater to all of the family [Hello, Kids Club!]

You are drawn to the bigger, tourist-friendly [and airport adjacent] spots of Nadi or Suva that offer plenty of accommodation, shopping and entertainment options for you, without the hassle of having to step too far out of your hotel or comfort zone.

You like the peace of mind that comes with knowing that if anything were to happen, you’ve got all the resources - and a quick escape route - at hand to deal with it.

You’re an eco-lover with a hunger for adventure.

Your affection for exploring nature – above and below sea level – means that you’re prepared for just about anything and can live out of your dive bag without a hassle. You’re a scuba certified, First-Aid trained, hardcore traveller who keeps calm under pressure.

You’d rather camp under the stars than stay in a ritzy resort, but you’re not above a little luxury if the price - and eco-compliance rating - is right. Or if someone else is footing the bill.

You’re the perfect person to get stranded on Taveuni with because you are resourceful, fun loving, and have a bucketload of adventure stories to share over a couple of coconuts [after you’ve gone diving and caught something fresh for dinner, of course]. You could probably also construct a makeshift dwelling out of some string, a hoodie and your surfboard, which is pretty freakin’ rad too.

You’re a former backpacker who has travelled extensively, but your desire for something just a little bit more private or upmarket [without selling out to commercialism] means that you’ve graduated to flashpacker status.

You still like mingling with cool people and making new travel buddies, but you also can’t stand the thought of sharing another fart-ridden 16-bed dorm again. You’re down with sharing meals and drinking with locals and travellers alike, and you froth over cultural experiences like dancing, storytelling and listening to native songs.

You’re a good person to have in an emergency because you’re a team player who can also take the lead or exercise independence when called upon.

You don’t need shops, banks or services to make you feel comfortable [which works out perfectly, because there are none on the Yasawas] and you’re just happy to spend your days hanging out in the water, relaxing on the beach with the latest Lonely Planet guide, and laughing over frosty beers with locals.

Your travel game? On. Point.

Step aside, glamor travellers. You’re an adventurous, down to earth backpacker who loves to travel low-key.

You prefer hostels or homestays to hotels and would rather spend your holiday hanging with locals than lazing by a resort pool listening to screaming kids. You’re not afraid to hop on planes, busses, boats and anything else that will get you to where you need to go, which is handy because the road situation on Kadavu is pretty limited and most places are only accessible by boat.

You are the kind of traveller that values experiences and welcomes any chance to get lost. You love the water and don’t mind a good hike either. You’re resourceful, friendly and can talk your way into any over-booked hostel when your reservation gets lost.

If shizz goes down when you’re around, you are confident enough to deal with it. Like. A. Boss.

You’re a bit of a diva and prefer your travel experiences to be luxurious rather than minimalist.

You’re more high maintenance than a French Poodle on Prozac and you want to be pampered just as much.

You’d go crazy if you didn’t have access to Wi-Fi [for Instagramming all those sexy, pouty, pool-side snaps] and the only service you’re interested in is the 5-star kind. The dirtiest part of your travels is the martini ordered with your 7-course degustation dinner.

You’ll be treated like royalty on Denarau and rightly so because, damn it, that’s what you paid for.

And if shizz does go south? Well, as long as the cocktails and canapés keep appearing next to your sun lounger, and the private massages are booked in advance, you won’t make [much of] a scene.
