Tahiti is really two seperate mountain peaks, linked by an isthmus gently sloping down to the sea in a series of green ridges. The larger portion of the island is Tahiti-Nui, the small portion of Tahiti-Iti. Papeete is the Government seat of French Polynesia and, being the largest city, has a fair amount to offer. One of the more off-beat attractions is the tomb of the last king of Tahiti, Pamare V, who has a king size bottle of Benedictine sculptted and placed on his tomb to commemorate him and his life long love affair with the drink. There are also a numer of museums – the Papeete Museum, the Gauguin Museum (with many Gauguin reproductions) and the Museum of the Discovery at La Pointe Venus, a vaxworks commemoration of the first European settlers on Tahiti. La Pointe Venus, incidentally, is the spot where Captain Cook first dropped anchor at Tahiti in 1769. Papeari has a beautiful Botanical Garden and, when you tire of looking at the gardens on the land, you can take a two hour glass bottomed boat tour of the lagoon and the gardens of the seas.
Not far from Papeete is the valley of Fautaua, scene of Pierre Loti’s idyll Rarabu, one of the island’s noted beauty spots where there is a statue dedicated to Loti.

Fijian food is delicious and different. Go to Magiti (feast) and you’ll picnic under the Southern stars on pig, taro and fish, succulently baked in a traditional earth oven, backed up by kokoda – raw fish, marinated in coconut cream and heaps of exotic fresh fruits. Other regular local delicacies include prawns, baked dalo, rourou, and a host of other good things. In addition there is a great tradition of Chinese and, of course, Indian food. If you tire of all that variety there is plenty of good European cuisine available. Restaurants in Suva to try are Himalaya Reataurant (48 Nina Street, Suva) for Indian food; fisherman’s Lodge (six miles from Suva’s outskirts by the waterside), and also two new restaurants – Biddy’s Steakhouse, and the Garrick.

The national sport – and passion – is rugby football and matches can be seen in the main cities. But New Zealand also offers splendid tennis, football and cricket. Clubs welcome visitors as temporary members – the National Tourist Board will give details. Glof is played on glorious courses both islands – there are hundreds registered clubs, which make visitors welcome. It is usual to take letter of introduction from one’s home club secretary. The beaches offer swimming, surfing and skin-diving from October to April and there is yachting in many harbors. The Regetta held in Auckland on Anniversary Day is one of the biggest in the world. Deep-sea fishing off 300 miles of North Island beaches will take sportsman in less than an hour to spectacular fighting fish – marlin, shark, tuna – from January to April. Fresh water fishing in lakes and fast-running rivers is exciting and rewarding. Hunting for many species of deer is unrestricted throughout the year. The terrain is often rough and a guide is essential. The game-bird shooting season opens the first Sunday in May. Firearms must be registered. The Hunting & Fishing Officer, Tourist & Publicity Department, Cove Bay, Rotoura, will give details.
For the less sporting there is helicopter hunting – New Zealand is the only country in the world that allows this controversial activity. Hunters are flown out from top hotels. Hiking and tramping (long distance mountain walking) through some of the world’s most exciting scenery is very popular – contact the New Zealand Federation of Mountaineering Clubs. For mountain climbing, contact the New Zealand Alpine Club.

Everybody has a dream desert island: Fiji can make that dream come true. Three hundred times over. Lying like a handful of pearls in the Southweast Pacific, the 300 islands that make up Fiji have it all – and more. Fantastic water sports – including spear and big-game fishing; great food- tropic feasts, Chinese, Indian and European; rich entertainment – traditional and Western style singing and dancing and, above all, the sort of warm hospitality you’d expect from a people whose neighbors are thousands of ocean miles away.
Captain Cook was one of the first recorded tourists, followed by Captain Bligh of the Bounty. Duty didn’t permit them to stay, but many others since have stayed and settled – Indians nd Chinese principally and, with the Fijians themselves and some Europeans, they form a truly harmonious and hospitable community.
