Sun, scuba, surf and saltwater — all punctuated by brief but massively heavy tropical downpours. It's where the Survivor shows are filmed.
Fijians are some of the toughest but kindest people you'll find anywhere, and they helped us across numerous visits with testing our products.
Whether it was jungle hikes to waterfalls or small boat trips to outlying reefs, Fiji served up every kind of test.
The methodWe put the gear through a thrashing, rinsed it off, and did it again.
Small boats to outlying reefs, and jungle hikes to waterfalls.
Fiji, by the numbers.
Fiji, up close.
Gear ashore between trips, out on the water, and island-hopping by air.
Fijians — some of the toughest and kindest people you'll find anywhere.
