Portable dvd player and lots of dvds sounds like a plan.

mp3 player is also definately needed, go exploring to kill the boredom.

Hmmm... and your point is?

Nothing, perhaps he could try some cliff diving

Select your own tribe members, put on warpaint and have battles.

True - I'm sure there's lots of really good fun stuff to do out there - it probably has a wonderful scenery.

you could always build a huge sand castle, ie. 4ft tall at least

i've always wanted to do that, hehe.

If you drink while floating on a lilo, does that count as "on the island"?

lol!

The problem is the 'chief' is a proper tribal chappie, I imagine he has spears and stuff.

Scuba divings one of the few things you can do on Fiji.

/Wonders if scuba diving for a living sucks the fun out of it?

I am going to be 'stuck' in Fiji for 3 weeks doing marine conservation (i.e. scuba diving, looking at fishes and writing down their names). Unfortunately the island is very remote. It has no electricity, no running water and no cell phone coverage. Scuba diving can only take up a few small hours so I really don't know what I'm going to do to while away the hours. I thought about reading but I have no attention span whatsoever. Is there anything which fits with the above constraints that can keep my mind off how I wish there was something to do?

Also, the 'chief' on the island has banned alcohol so theres no drinking either.

How did you get into that position?

You could always try a heliox dive, go really really deep and kill time in decompression...
