Notes from a Traveller October 2009: 'We arranged for "Sunset" buses to pick us up - they apparently arrived under the name of "Sunrise" but operating as Sunset (The sunset timetable is unchanged from the one you have posted). Buses don't necessarily need to be booked - just show up. However, some apparently get full (Pacific was full for early morning). Bus timetables are apparently posted at the bus station, outside the airport near the domestic side (so we were told). A local told us that taxis returning from Suva/Pacific Harbour to Nadi are willing to charge the same/similar prices as buses. since they are heading that way anyway (we caught a taxi back at FJD$15 pp, 30 total) - it's a good idea to have a google map print out of the towns you will pass to know where your stop is.'

They all stop at the domestic terminal at Nadi Airport and the markets at Nadi Town, Sigatoka, and Navua. The Fiji Visitors Bureau usually has schedules at its offices.
