Beachcomber Island for Schoolies

Schoolies- many travel to QLD for the big parties and thousands of people (to the point in which you cannot move), many go to Bali, which can also be chaotic...but what about Fiji?http://www.unleashedtravel.com.au/travel/beachcomber/. The schoolies you will NEVER forget. Australians, Kiwi's, English, French, Italian...you name it, they're there. Its one massive party with a bunch of young people (and young at heart of course) on the island of Beachcomber. When i went (schoolies time of course) there were 200 people, all on Beachcomber island, ready for a good time. I made friends with people from all over the world. My friends and i had conversations with people from England, New Zealand, France (we even got to test out our french) and many other places. Buying each other a drink, having a chat and a dance is what it is all about. I have never had so much fun in my life. Unleashed is a company which organises those who want to go to Beachcomber island for schoolies. Don't worry...it's not an excursion, no rules (if there were any, no one obided...and no one said no when we did anything we weren't supposed too!), no expectations. From dancing on table tops, to wet t-shirt competitions to endless amounts of alcohol its a schoolies trip i'm glad i went on. There is a rule on Beachcomber island that no drinking is allowed in the dorms (unless the alcohol is bought from the bar), fortunately, those rules no longer existed for schoolies. Sitting in the boys dorm, making friends and drinking was a really fun evening. The price of the schoolies trip may seem a lot, but when compared to a trip to QLD...which is in your own country, its worth every cent. The experience, the great times, the place and the people are those never forgotten.
