What should I pack when moving to Sigatoka?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Sigatoka to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Sigatoka, it's important to pack lightweight and breathable clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items such as shorts, t-shirts, and sundresses, as well as a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings. Don't forget to pack a good amount of swimwear, as you'll likely spend a lot of time at the beach. Pack a sturdy pair of sandals for everyday wear and a pair of water shoes for exploring the coral reefs. Also, include a pair of comfortable walking shoes for sightseeing. Sun protection is crucial in Fiji, so pack a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and plenty of high-SPF sunscreen. Remember to bring your essential toiletries, but keep in mind that most items can be purchased locally. Pack a universal power adapter for your electronics, as the plugs in Fiji may be different from those in your home country. Bring any necessary prescription medications, along with a copy of your prescription. Pack a basic first-aid kit with band-aids, antiseptic wipes, and over-the-counter pain relievers. Don't forget to bring important documents such as your passport, driver's license, and any necessary visas or permits. Lastly, consider packing a few comforts from home, such as your favorite snacks or books, to help you settle into your new surroundings," said another expat in Sigatoka, Fiji.
