Vanua Levu (Great Land of the People) is the second largest of Fiji's 333 islands and seldom visited by travellers. However, Vanua Levu has a lot to offer, particularly if you want to discover the 'real' Fiji, away from
the tourist resorts of Viti Levu and the Mamanuca and Yasawa island groups. Vanua Levu is largely a cane growing area with around 20% of Fiji's population. The island has quite good transport services which make it
a fairly easy island to visit. Getting around the island's main routes is possible by bus but it's easier to
explore those wild, tropical roads by 4WD. Vanua Levu has an area of about 2,140 square miles. It is divided along its length by a mountain range with peaks rising to more than 3,000 feet. The predominantly indigenous-Fijian southeast of the island has gorgeous landscape brimming with rainforests, coconut plantations and fantastic views of the ocean. The area is popular with yachters and divers. Its nearby Rainbow Reef has some of the best dive sites in the South Pacific. The many deep bays are fantastic for kayaking and the lush, rugged interior rainforest provides good bird-watching. The main towns are Labasa on the north coast and Savu Savu in the south. Savu Savu is a charming town surrounded by copra plantations and is famous worldwide for its diving. Situated on the shores of a large picturesque, deep water harbour, it was originally established as ort for sailing ships plying the north-eastern regions of Fiji. Although Labasa is the larger of the two, Savu Savu is more popular with travellers as it is a popular transit point for ferries and flights to other islands.
Here are some of our accommodation recommendations:

Nububati Island Resort ~ Nukubati (pronounced nook-ooM-bah-tee) is situated inside the Great Sea Reef, 
off the North Coast of Vanua Levu. The nearest town is Labasa. From Nadi International Airport, it is just a
40 minute domestic flight to Fiji's northern capital town, Labasa, followed by a one hour adventurous drive through coconut plantations, rice fields and Fijian villages to Nukubati's jetty for the five minute boat ride to the island. Nukubati is a private island resort, a natural extension of a gracious and simple style of South Pacific living. Catering for a limited number of guests, Nukubati is locally owned, preserving its incomparable Fijian style in an atmosphere of total seclusion.

Yasawa Eilanden

They are a chain of 16 volcanic islands and dozens of tiny islets stretching 80 km in a north-east direction off
the west coast of Viti Levu. They are special because of their beautiful, isolated beaches, cliffs, bays and reefs, unspoiled by much tourist development. The group of islands has four quite distinct regions although all are blessed with outstanding beaches. The Waya Islands , in the southern part of the group, are similar in nature to the outer Mamanuca Islands with high mountain peaks, dramatic rock faces and fantastic coastal and hill walking tracks. These three islands are the closest to the mainland taking just over an hour from Lautoka and are by far the most interesting to visit with the deep bays and pretty villages being regular stops for overnight cruises. To the north is the largest island in the group, Naviti, with rolling grassy hills and a dozen small offshore islands where manta rays congregate in the protected bays between May and October. About half an hour north of Naviti is a collection of eight small islands around Nacula, with three up-market resorts and the freehold island of Tavewa boasting the original backpackers in the group. The surrounding islands remain the backpacker hub of Fiji . Its main attraction is its white sandy beaches and sheltered lagoon nicknamed Blue Lagoon. The group was romanticized in the movie 'The Blue Lagoon' twice, once in 1949 with Jean Simmons and again in 1980 with Brooke Shields. The Yasawa islands can be reached by boat, helicopter and seaplanes.
