Deep in the south pacific, the island nation of Fiji rises
from the sea, a paradise attracting thrill seekers and
lovers of the natural world. Fiji features famed coral reef
wilderness, tropical mountainous jungles, deep rushing rivers
and volcanic landscapes. Many flock to Fiji for its beauty
and its beaches, but this trip shows you the trails less
travelled as you immerse yourself in the culture of native
Fijians. Through service opportunities, you’ll get to know
the people that make this place so special. You’ll also
explore the more remote wilderness locations of this island
paradise from the underwater depths to the mountain peaks.

“There is something so special about the simple moments
spent on Moondance. Waking up to the sound of waves
crashing or chickens calling and jamming out to music with
my best friends are moments that make Moondance unique.
It lets us access experiences we never imagined.”
Haley Krubert, 16, Chicago, IL

Meet your group in Los
Angeles at LAX airport.
Fly together to Nadi,
Fij i. Upon arriving, orient
yourself to the South
Pacific, and travel to
your first night together
in Pacific Harbor.
Awaken in the beautiful Pacific Harbor and
begin your SCUBA certif ication training. For
the next four days you’ll learn to properly and
safely take oxygen below the surface with you
and breathe underwater. You’ll navigate the
deep water dive, earning an all access pass to
an entirely different world. The barrier reefs
of Fij i are known for their biodiversity, unique
coral reef systems and technicolor creatures.
Once you have this certif ication, you’ll have
the skills to dive all over the world, but you’ll
always hold a special memory of your first
deep diving exploration in Fij i.
You’ll spend the next few days living in a local
village on the banks of the river. Here you’ll
immerse yourself in the culture of this small
and vibrant community as you stay in homestays
and work on service projects. You’ll tend to the
matters most pressing, and could be working
on anything from painting houses, to repairing
gathering places, to playing with school
children. You’ll have time to connect with the
families, explore cooking and culture in your
homestay, and deepen your connection to your
group, and to your adventure.

Travel from the inland rivers and tropical jungle
back to the southern coast near Namatakula
where you’ll prepare for two days of surfing.
Professional guides will teach you the art
of this ancient south pacific pastime, and
you’ll learn to paddle and stand up on moving
mountains of water. Surfing is a sacred act in
the south pacific, and there is no more idyllic
shoreline to learn. In the evenings, try your
hand at a stand-up paddle board and get a new
vantage point of the clear turquoise waters. On
the evening of your second day, you’ll begin the
journey back to Nadi, where you’ll enjoy a f inal
celebratory banquet with your team.
Saying goodbye to the connections
you’ve made. Get on the stunning
Navua River. This thrilling waterway
features quick rapids, steep
volcanic canyons and waterfalls
deep in the tropical jungle. One of
the most picturesque rivers in the
world, this bright blue waterway is
also one of the most fun. Navigate
the rapids with your team and learn
the art of white water travel among
amazing scenery.
Land back in Los Angeles, and
spend one final night together
before catching your final
flight home!
