Beqa Lagoon Fiji - Non diving activities?

[SapphireMind]

I've got a trip with my LDS that I've been planning for nearly a year. Unfortunately, I broke my dominant hand in two places, a week before leaving

Obviously, I'm not going to be diving anymore, but I did convince my hand ortho to give me a splint instead of a cast so I can snorkel and swim.

I am not a sun lover (I'm a little concerned about Fiji's cultural avoidance of hats - I use one for sun protection!) and normally on non diving vacations, I spend a lot of time crafting and reading. I can't craft really because of my hand :/

I'm looking for other things to do while there. I have travel insurance, but I figure, it's still Fiji and a vacation and it was a really good deal. Would love to hear if anyone did any other things while there that they really enjoyed that won't really require two hands.

I'm curious how your trip to Fiji with a broken hand went. Most particularly I'm interested to hear about how you found the snorkeling, and where you might recommend.

My situation is that I dive, but my wife doesn't (she got certified but just could never manage her claustrophobia). So snorkeling is our favorite way to spend time together in the tropics. I'll still do dives, and am particularly a soft corals nut, so we do need to be near the rainbow reef (both for the diving and so I'm not gone all day), but I also want to locate where there's great shore snorkeling.

Any suggestions? Thanks!
