Flea Market, Second-hand Market
📖 Fiji's market scene is a vibrant blend of fresh produce, traditional handicrafts, and second-hand goods. For resellers, the real treasures are in authentic, locally-made items like Tapa cloths, kava bowls (Tanoa), and hand-woven mats, which have strong appeal both locally and internationally. Bargaining is expected, and the best finds are often discovered on busy Saturday mornings when villagers bring their goods to the main towns.
