There is no reason why an activity on vacation has to cost anyone tons of money to enjoy. The Sigatoka Sand Dunes National Park is a cheap way to enjoy the environment of Fiji, and have a nice quiet day out on the island. At the park you can expect pine forests, and plenty of greenery. The national park is Fiji’s first park that protects its sand hills, which extend for several miles along the coast. The park is home to ancient burial grounds and pieces of pottery dating back from 5 B.C to A. D. 240. Many pieces still can be found among the dunes, but removing them is against the law. These artifacts are said to be the remains of pottery from the Lapita Era, giving important clues to the origin of the early inhabitants of Fiji. Over 50 individual remains have been excavated as part of the ongoing archaeological program. The park is a popular attraction with locals and visitors because so much history and culture from the dunes keeps resurfacing.
