Volunteering in Fiji | Projects Abroad

Volunteer in Fiji with Projects Abroad to help address the needs of local communities. You’ll experience life in this beautiful Pacific island while supporting ongoing efforts to help communities in need. Lonely Planet has rated our Projects as the best for sustainable travel in Fiji.

There are several volunteer opportunities in Fiji to choose from.

You can join our internationally-recognized Shark Conservation Project, where we’re conducting valuable research about one of the ocean’s most feared and misunderstood predators. You can choose to work with young children through education in under-resourced daycares. Or, immerse in Fijian culture by spending time in a traditional village.

You’ll be living on the largest island, Viti Levu. Our projects are based in Pacific Harbour towards the South of the island. While volunteering in Fiji, you’ll receive 24/7 support from Projects Abroad staff.

Fiji offers visitors some incredible travel opportunities. You can go trekking in the dramatic highland interiors and bask on beautiful tropical beaches. Experience colorful festivals, hop between islands on a boat, and scuba dive in crystal-clear waters.
