Beachcomber Island- For the Young and Young At Heart!


Of all the islands in Fiji, Beachcomber island is the island of choice for many young people seeking adventure, entertainment and a big party nightlife, Beachcomber offers plenty of that, also alcohol and dancing till the early hours of the warm Fijian morning. The island is small and cosy, with white sands and crystal clear beaches. The island offers a range of accommodation from a 'Bure'- which is a simple room, with personal shower and toilets, to the big dorms. Girls and boys dorms are available, although the separation of the both is hardly worthwhile, they have girls and boys showers and toilets to share. Girls and boys are free to roam each others dorms, with a wall blocking the two, which is incredibly pointless. When i went to Beachcomber island,i was put into the upstairs of the girls dorm, in a bunk bed, which overlooked the boys and girls dorm, many mornings waking up to some interesting views! But that aside, for the young and young at heart, Beachcomber island is the place to be. The bar is opened at 9am and closes around 4am. The bar sells chocolates, toasted sandwich's and milkshakes (usually for us party goers, bailey shotted milkshakes!) whenever they're open for anyone who's got the munchies. The island offers 3 meals a day- and every time the drum is played it means meal time. Many hungry, hungover people making their way for a meal as soon as possible. The food ranges from your typical breakfast, to fish curry, pasta salad and roti bread lunch, to a delicious choice of beef, vegetable or fish curry at dinner, served with rice. Although food is generally Indian style, they also offer chicken, ham, beef and also exotic dishes. Vegetarian meals are available for those who require it. If you're young, or young at heart, Beachcomber island is the destination for you.
