Car Rental from Your Fiji Resort: Denarau, the Coral Coast and Beyond
Quick summary: Whether a rental car is worth it depends on where you’re staying. Denarau Island, where most of Nadi’s resorts are gathered, is only around 15 minutes from Nadi, and many guests rent for a day or two of exploring. Coral Coast resorts are more spread out, so a car helps for beaches and villages. Suva visitors use a car to reach the Coral Coast’s beaches and rainforest parks. If you plan to stay put, transfers and tours are simpler.
