1. Indulge in a Coral Coast Spa Treatment
Wherever you stay on the Coral Coast, day spas are a surefire way to enjoy a timeout from the rest of the world. Try CHI, The Spa of the Shangri-La’s Fijian Resort, which offers traditional Asian-style treatments using Fijian natural products.
The InterContinental Resort‘s aptly-named Spa offers a range of experiences from hydrotherapy in their Wai Zone to a private beachside cabana massage.

Location: See the link above for recommendations and their locations.

2. Go Scuba Diving in Coral Reefs
Scuba diving is one of the must-do experiences in Fiji, especially on the Coral Coast. Resorts that cater to adult-only holidays, like Tambua Sands, have scuba diving lessons and trips available.
Alternatively, if you are staying in resorts that are also open to families, you’ll often find that scuba diving trips have far more adults (or exclusively adults) than children, as kids can only start learning from age 10.
Location: Scuba diving is available with Diveaway Fiji, which is based at the Fiji Hideaway Resort, Korolevu, but offers transfers from Coral Coast resorts.

3. Play a Round of Golf on a Championship Course
The Coral Coast is one of the best locations in Fiji to play golf, so don’t miss the opportunity to play. Most famously, the InterContinental‘s Natadola Bay Championship Golf Course is one of Fiji’s most prestigious courses.
While the course is open to all ages, golfing etiquette is taken seriously making it a pleasant experience for all.
Alternatively, try the 9-hole golf course at the fabulous Shangri-La’s Fijian Resort or Naviti Resort. See our Complete Guide to Golf in Fiji to learn more.
Location: See recommendations and their locations listed in the 12 Best Golf Courses in Fiji.

4. Try Your Luck on a Game Fishing Charter
Game and sport-fishing charters are a popular way to get out on the water on an experience that is either private for your group or more likely to be shared with fellow adults. Try your luck catching monsters like mahimahi, sailfish, giant trevally and much more.
Fishing charters are available with Coral Coast Fishing Charters, Sigatoka Fishing Charters and Coastal Inland Tours.

Location: Resort transfers can be arranged. More information on our favourite operators can be found in the 10 Best Fishing Tours in Fiji.

5. Dine at One of the Adult-Only Restaurants
Set the mood right by dining in one of the Coral Coast’s romantic adult-only restaurants, cafes and bars. While the restaurants of the adult-only resorts are the obvious go-to, other resorts have their own adult-only dining areas, such as the Takali Asian Kitchen of the Shangri-La’s Fijian Resort.
Adults-only breakfast is also served at the resort’s Golden Dowrie Coastal Italian Restaurant.
Alternatively, guests at Outrigger Resort have the luxury of the adults-only Vahavu Bistro located in their adults-only pool area.
Finally, the InterContinental Resort offers private dining experiences for couples.
Learn more about dining on the Coral Coast in our Guide to the Best Eats & Restaurants on the Coral Coast.
Location: Shangri-La – Yanuca Island, Queens Road. Outrigger – Queens Road, Korotogo. InterContinental – Natadola Bay.

6. Hire a Kayak for a Private Paddle Along the Coast
Almost every waterfront resort on the Coral Coast offers complimentary use of kayaks, which is a great way to get on the water and enjoy your own “Fiji time“. It’s one of the most peaceful ways to get out on the water with no busy tour groups and no motor noise: just you and the crystal clear waters below.
Location: Just about any Coral Coast resort! Take your pick from the 20 Best Resorts on the Coral Coast.

7. Spend the Day by the Adults Pool
Indulge in some relaxing pool time at one of the Coral Coast’s adult pools.
Cool down in the infinity-edge pool of the Shangri-La’s Fijian Resort‘s adults-only Reef Wing or in the infinity adults-only pool of the InterContinental Resort. The Warwick Resort‘s adults-only Suva Wing has a fabulous pool, while the Outrigger Resort‘s “Vahavu Pool” has its very own swim-up bar.
Needless to say, the pools of the Coral Coast’s three adult-exclusive resorts are relaxing child-free zones.
Location: See the 7 Best Adults-Only Resorts on the Coral Coast to learn more.

8. Hit the Coral Coast’s Surf Breaks
For adults seeking an adrenaline-packed escape, the Coral Coast’s challenging surf breaks offer an exhilarating experience. With reef breaks that demand a fair bit of expertise, these spots are perfect for seasoned surfers looking to catch some serious waves.
Many Coral Coast resorts, featured in our 10 Best Surf Resorts in Fiji, provide surf boats to access nearby breaks.
For those with a “go big or go home” attitude, we particularly recommend the southern breaks like Frigates and J’s. These powerful waves offer an intense surfing experience that’s sure to satisfy even the most adventurous travellers.
To discover more epic surf spots, check out our guide to the 10 Best Places to Surf on the Coral Coast.
Location: Various locations along the Coral Coast. See the link above for specific break locations.

9. Drink and Be Merry at the Coral’s Coast Bars
The Coral Coast might not be the party hub of the South Pacific, but it is a stunning location for casual drinks with friends or your loved one. All the resorts mentioned in this list have their own bar options, which is where guests often find themselves most evenings.
But if you’re looking to explore further, check out the charming Beach Bar N Grill on the Sunset Strip of Korotogo!

10. Enjoy the Cultural Activities of Your Adults-Only Resort
It’s true that the cultural entertainment nights are usually where resort guests of all ages come together. However, you can still get your dose of culture in a less-crowded setting at one of the adult-only resorts.
Tambua Sands Resort invites you to immerse yourself in Fijian culture with coconut dessert-making lessons (tasting included), traditional kava ceremonies, and fascinating insights into Fiji’s rich history and traditions.
We recommend joining these activities to truly appreciate the warmth and hospitality of Fijian culture (you’ll find more details in our guide to Fijian traditions).
Location: Tambua Sands Resort, Queens Road, Namada.
