Port Denarau Retail & Commercial Centre

Dining, shopping, and island adventures—all in one place. Skip the planning stress and dive into the best of Denarau Island’s retail and commercial hub, where the choices are endless and the Bula Bus delivers you right to the door.

Denarau Island is a dream come true for visitors who want to experience a total South Sea holiday. Lapped by the warm tropical waters of Nadi Bay, Fiji’s Denarau Island offers an overwhelming choice of luxury accommodation from world-class hotels as well as just about everything else to make a perfect holiday.

Sporting facilities include an 18-hole, par-72 golf course as well as all-weather tennis courts, a lawn bowls green, and just about every conceivable entertainment facility—including children’s play areas, clubs, and swimming and paddle pools. For adults, the choice is much greater with a cornucopia of bars, restaurants, and cafes, as well as shopping and activity options that seem endless. In fact, it is possible to holiday for a week or more and never eat at the same restaurant or drink in the same bar twice.

The Port Denarau Retail and Commercial Centre forms an integral part of the options available on Denarau. The Centre offers 10,000 square metres of the best mix of services and retail shopping anywhere in Fiji. Getting there is a pleasure on the Bula Bus, which operates from all the resorts and delivers you directly to the Centre’s entrance.

Perhaps you have booked a cruise to one of the nearby islands or any one of a great number of other activities that start at the port. If you feel overwhelmed with the range of options, then as they say, “you ain’t seen nuthin’ yet.”

A good start to planning a discovery tour would be to order a cappuccino at Lazy Beans while you take in the busy scene. This may be followed by browsing and shopping, or perhaps you have booked in with Spa Denarau or Professional Nails (or both!) for some expert pampering.

Other options include hiring a rental car for your own exploration of Nadi or Lautoka Towns, or perhaps an adventurous trip to the nearby Nausori Highlands—or anywhere else on Viti Levu for that matter. If you are an early bird, you can breakfast at Port Denarau while you watch cruise and charter boats preparing for their day of island transfers, fishing trips, and scuba diving.

The Centre’s food offering is nothing short of sensational. For “shopaholics,” the Centre has the answer with both contemporary and cultural clothing, a marvelous selection of handicrafts, and for jewellery, it’s hard to go past Jewels Fiji.

The Centre also offers free entertainment performances from Thursday to Sunday nights inclusive.

After a busy time exploring and indulging in spa, retail, and epicurean delights, you can retreat to your resort and all the rest and relaxation options available there.

In other words, there is always something for everyone. From a bottle of water and an ice cream to a private hospital, duty-free shopping, and authentic Fijian food—hail the Bula Bus, tell the driver “To the Port, please,” and see for yourself.
