The event promotes Fiji as both a world-class swim destination and an ideal location for active holidays, family travel, and international events.
This year’s event features three high-profile Kiwi personalities: Dame Sophie Pascoe, Wendy Petrie, and Jordan Watson.
Tourism Fiji Chief Executive Brent Hill says events like these bring communities to life, boost the local economy, and showcase Fiji’s beauty and warmth globally.
Hill highlights that from resort staff and boat operators to local vendors and cultural performers, many Fijians benefit when Fiji hosts international events of this scale.
