Are you going to the Resort shared by Worldmark and Worldmark South Pacific? We were there several years ago. We did several all day snorkling trips. We ziplined. We did an all day tour that included the Orchid Garden started by Raymond Burr, a Fiji Village, and the Hindu Temple. Remember to dress appropriately for the Hindu Temple. They will loan you srongs/wraps to put on if you are not dressed appropriately.

We also spend several days laying around the Resort and enjoying the Pool/Swim up Bar.

Is there snorkeling area nearby or do you have to take a tour? Thinking of going there next year as well. Would like to have an idea how expensive all the activities and other costs (food, transportation, etc.) will be.

If you are going to the WM/WMSP in Fiji there is no snorkeling near by. In fact the Beach by the Resort is not a swimming Beach. There are other places on Suva at which you can snorkel But you need a rental car to get to them. The better snorkeling is located off Suva. We did the South Sea Island Full-Day Cruise that is offered through Travelshare. We also did another all day cruise to a snorkeling reef.

Yeah WM resort is one that I have in mind. So the resort is on the island of Suva? Do you remember the approximate cost for such tours?

Ok ok the Island is Viti Levu. Also while the Resort says it is on Denarau Island it is only separated from Viti Levu by a stream/mangrove area and connected by a Bridge. Denarau is mainly resorts with a small Port Town on the North end. There are tourist shops and a grocery store. Also the Resort has a grocery store. We do not remember of the cost of the various activities. There was an office at the Resort that could help Book activities. There was also a small bus that traveled up and down Denarau Island and if we remember correctly a bus to Nadi.
