"Most of the landmass of Fiji—about as much acreage as New Jersey—is made up of two volcanic heaps: Vanua Levu and Viti Levu, the biggest island [pictured]. . . . Viti Levu is strikingly two sided: On the wet eastern slopes rain forest fills the hills deep with green mystery and mist, while just 50 miles [80 kilometers] to leeward, grassy slopes and rock outcrops create a landscape that looks like southern California." [as shown here]
