How to Rent a Bicycle in Fiji
We’ll cut right to the chase. Cycling in Fiji isn’t the most accessible activity to do on the islands. With most road networks limited to only a few of Fiji’s 333 islands, cycling isn’t a common method of getting around in Fiji. Nevertheless, for those who are determined to get some active time in their Fiji holiday, there are still some great cycling experiences to be had. Your options will just be limited to the areas of Nadi, Denarau, a couple of islands in the Mamanuca Islands and Savusavu in Vanua Levu. Check out where to rent a bike in Fiji in this guide.
5 Ways to Get a Bike in Fiji
- Rent a bike from one of the islands’ bike rental services
- Join a guided bike tour, offered by selected resorts
- Make use of some resorts’ complimentary bike rentals
- Join an all-inclusive Fiji cycling holiday with bike rentals, accommodation, food and activities included

With the largest network of roads, Viti Levu is the go-to island for a self-guided bike adventure. However, your adventure will have to start in Nadi where the only bicycle rental company on the mainland is based. Bike rentals are also available in Denarau, but you are restricted to only cycling in Denarau.
Nadi Bicycle Rentals
Stinger Bicycles has a great range of bikes to rent, from Avanti bikes to Gary Fisher. They come in numerous sizes for you to get the perfect fit. The rental also includes a helmet, bike lock, puncture repair kit and a water bottle. Shuttle transport can be added at cost. Bikes cost FJ$60-$80 per day.

Denarau Island Bicycle Rentals
Situated outside of the Wyndham Resort complex, a watersports hire stall rents out bikes for around FJ$25 per hour. There’s limited choice in bikes, but they are a fun way of getting around the island. Note that you are not allowed to take the bikes off the island (to venture into Nadi, for instance).
Viti Levu Motorcycle Rentals
If two wheels and a motor was more what you were looking for, then, again, you have one option for motorcycle rentals in Viti Levu.

- Nadi (Lot 31 Waqavuka Road, Namaka Industrial, Nadi)

With quieter roads and some more favourable cycling routes, from rainforest bike rides to coastal trails, Vanua Levu is well worth considering for some cycling in Fiji. Fiji’s second-largest island is less-frequented than Viti Levu, but still has a great selection of resorts and activities. Find out more in our list of 12 Amazing Things to Do on Vanua Levu.
