The Poseidon Resort is an underwater resort that gives visitors a beautiful scenery of sea life. It covers 255 acres.

This resort even has a hotel for those who would prefer to have the unusual experience of sleeping and waking up to a beautiful view of sea life all around them.

Getting down and dirty in the mud is believed to have therapeutic (治疗的) benefits. This is an unusual thing to do, but adults and especially kids, will love it.
Fire walking
Fire walking in Fiji is believed to have been originated on the island of Beau. Fire walking is when you walk on white-hot stones barefoot. To be ready to do this, you have to be mentally prepared for it. There is lot of preparation and strict rules that travelers follow in order to do this safely.
