Where to Buy Gifts in Fiji: Your Ultimate Island Shopping Guide

If you’re the kind of traveller who waits until the airport to buy souvenirs… we suggest dedicating a couple hours of your trip to support local. Fiji is full of small island businesses, local makers and hidden corners where you’ll find gifts with actual heart, not the generic “I forgot to shop” magnets.

Here are the best spots to pick up something meaningful, beautiful, and authentically Fijian:

1. The Projects Collective - Based on the road to Denarau Island

If you buy one gift in Fiji, let it be from The Projects Collective.This space is basically a love letter to island creativity: a blend of local designers, artists, eco-conscious products, Pacific jewellery, handmade body oils, and quirky Fijian-inspired pieces you won’t find all in one place.

Why we love it:

• Thoughtfully curated gifts from all over Fiji

• Local brands and Pacific creatives showcased beautifully

• A vibe that makes you want to stay for coffee… then accidentally buy three candles and a shell bracelet

  
  

Whether you need something small to tuck into your carry-on or a statement island piece, this is your spot.

2. Local Markets

If you want to give a gift with meaning, something someone’s hands shaped, carved, painted or wove, go to the markets.

Namaka Market - Gifts in Fiji

This is where the locals actually shop. Alongside fresh produce you’ll find small artisan tables with woven fans, masi-inspired crafts, herbal oils, shell jewellery and handmade pieces straight from the villages. It’s raw, real and full of personality.

Nadi Market

Closer to town, Nadi Market is another spot to pick up woven baskets, coconut bowls, spice blends, handcrafted wooden pieces and traditional Fijian souvenirs. Here, you’re buying directly from the artisan, supporting families, communities and generations of craft.

Why we love the markets:

• You meet the maker

• You’re supporting Fijian artisans directly

• You can pick up gifts at every price point

• Every item has a story behind it

Nothing beats gifting something made with love by the people who call these islands home.
