Apart from its offshore activities, Pacific Harbour's main attraction is the
Arts Village
, an
atmospheric colonial-style shopping centre with thirty boutique shops selling quality clothes
and crafts and restaurants (plus an ATM machine, Internet café - at no 18 - massage place
and supermarket). Also here is the kitsch but fun
Cultural Centre
, a mock-traditional Fijian
village with an artificial lake that you can be punted around in a canoe. You can also ex-
plore the replica
bure kalou
, or scared temple, to hear about ancient customs and legends.
The highlight, though, is the theatrical
fire walking
ceremony (Mon-Sat 11am), performed
on an island in the middle of the lake.
