Vanua Levu Island is the second largest island in the Fiji’s lying north of Viti Levu. A Vanua vacation will give you an untouched rugged tropical island in which to explore. Vanua Travel normally brings guests to Cousteau and Namale instead of the more remote areas of Fiji Vanua. However, many love the picturesque view found at Savusavu Bay while they are enjoying their Vanua travel.
Vanua Levu Fiji has many wonderful accommodations along
with several activities. You will more than likely enjoy
watching all the yachts at Wai Tui Marina. Here you can
enjoy barbecue night and curry night while dancing the
night away to the tune of local music. If you prefer a
different type of eatery, you may like the German Fijian
home at the Bula Re café. Want an adventure? The
Trips n’ Tours in the Copra Shed Marina offers 3
or 4-day adventure trips that will have you begging for
more after you get your sea legs. Vanua Travel often includes
water whether by sailboat or cruise
ship, the open waters beckons travelers.
Shopping is a great pastime
for your Vanua vacation. Savusavu is the center of all
the business and industry on Vanua. Finding handmade items
to take home or give to family and friends is a great
way to pass the time along.
Beaches are not what you might
expect after visiting other Fiji Islands. Fiji Vanua is
more volcanic in nature, which means those beautiful white
sandy beaches are almost nonexistent. However, the coastline
is wonderful to explore by kayak all around Vanua Levu
Island. A matter of fact, kayaking
is the most popular activity on Vanua Levu Fiji along
with hiking and horseback
riding. Scuba diving is
also very popular on Vanua Levu Island but not as much
so as other Fiji Islands. Savusavu is the most popular
diving area commonly referred to by locals as the "Hidden
Paradise".
To enjoy your Vanua vacation you must find the best accommodations around. A popular hotel is the Savusavu Hot Springs Hotel. From this splendid hotel, you have an awesome view of Savusavu Bay. Many locals hang out and listen to the live music performed by locals. Activities offered include affordable scuba diving, sport fishing, and bush treks.
Fiji Vanua has a few resorts that might be of interest as well. One that guests really enjoy in Savusavu is the Daku Resort. The resort is great for singles, couples, and the entire family. Accommodations offered include two double bures that can accommodate 8 guests, a villa for a family of up to six, and a quaint beach house that can sleep up to 8.
If you prefer to look elsewhere on Vanua Levu Fiji Island than in Savusavu then you might wish to stay at the Tropic Splendor Beachfront Cottage, which is only around 20 minutes Savusavu on the northern coast. Here you will not only enjoy the comfort but the wonderful hospitality and unique treks that are offered such as visiting the local villages to learn net fishing, bamboo rafting and more.
One more accommodation worth mentioning is Almost Paradise, which is home on Sau Bay on the eastern coast of Vanua Levu. Boat rides and scuba diving are the most popular activities offered with great food and friendly staff.
Vanua Levu has many wonderful things
to do and sights to see that will keep the entire
family busy and content during your vacation. No matter
whether one member wants to soak up the sun or others
wish to have exciting adventures. A vacation
in Fiji would not be the same if you did not venture
off to Vanua Levu and enjoy the day or even two.
