Shopping in Nadi

Nadi offers a great shopping experience with most of the main shops located along the one very busy and congested main street.

 

Shopping for that trendy outfit in Nadi Town is affordable with items of good quality with several large labels manufactured in the country. T-shirts, jeans, joggers and surf shorts abound here.

 

Many of the stores have a service orientated feel about them and staff have impeccable manners, but try not to let anyone talk into buying something you don’t really want.

 

There are fine jeweler outlets but styles generally cater for the Indian population.

 

Woven items and wooden artifacts are some of the most popular souvenir items and these are readily available at many establishments, large and small.

 

Jack's of Fiji is the largest and best stocked outlet with a wide selection of handicrafts, t-shirts, jewellery, clothing and even paintings by local artists.

 

They offer reasonable prices and rather than pushy, Jacks staff is helpful, in sharp contrast to a handful of handicraft touts you may encounter on the main street.

Jacks is also located in other outlets including the Sheraton Fiji Resort shopping arcade.

 

There are also a good number of stores that sell digital items such as cameras, I-Pods and mobile phones. Other outlets to check out are Nadi Handicraft Centre and Nad's Handicrafts.

 

You may encounter a reasonably priced selection of leather goods and items such as black pearls at the Nadi Handicraft Centre and a wide variety of Fijian pottery at Nads. The Nadi Handicraft Market, which is an assortment of stalls near the southern end of the town usually sells good woven pandanus baskets, mats, traditional tapa cloth and other goods. Try your hand at bargaining. It can be fun but don’t push too hard bearing in mind that these handicrafts and other items take days and sometimes weeks to produce.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

  Port Denarau

 

Port Denarau is shopping at another level and a haven for those who wish to do their shopping in an illustrious and pleasant atmosphere. There is a wide range of boutique clothing with brand name items prevalent and high-end handicrafts. While shopping at Denarau you can wander around the Food Mart, have a coffee, check out where you are going to wine and dine that evening and generally just enjoy the glorious location right on the ocean. Denarau has excellent handicraft makers that are capable of packing and posting items worldwide subject of course to prior notification.

 

All in all, shopping at these main centres is fun, fascinating and rewarding with the opportunity to bargain adding another dimension.
