TAVEUNI ISLAND, THE GARDEN ISLAND

Taveuni lies to the north-east of Fiji's main island, Viti Levu, and is the third largest island in the archipelago. Approximately 140km and a mere hour’s direct flight from the capital, Suva, Taveuni Island rises like an emerald-coloured gem from the Pacific and is a haven of lush tropical forests, pristine beaches and some of the best soft coral reefs in the world.

Though Taveuni Island is just 42 km (26 miles) long and 11.26km (7 miles) wide, its relatively small size belies its importance in the region.

Known as the ‘garden island’, Taveuni is blessed with an abundance of rich and fertile volcanic soil and is home to thriving plantations of copra and kava. Taveuni also has an amazing abundance of tropical fruit and exotic vegetables that grow wild on the island. There is an endless supply of fresh water, coupled with enormous mango trees, papayas, pineapples, chillies, taro and avocados, making living of the land very possible in this island paradise.

Taveuni Island is also famed for its immense natural beauty including crystal clear waters that make it a sought-after diving destination, abundant natural life above and below the sea level and breathtaking vistas across the Pacific on Taveuni

With its tropical climate, Taveuni Island enjoys pleasant temperatures year-round - from 20' C (68' F) in the cool season, to 30' C (86' F) in summer. The moderate climate means Taveuni is the ideal site for a tropical home-away from-home where leisure activities can be enjoyed throughout the year.

Another eco-treasure that attracts intrepid explorers is the series of world-famous coral reefs. Known as ‘the soft coral capital of the world’. Fiji, and Taveuni island in particular, is a mecca for divers from all over the globe. The famous Rainbow Reef lies a five minute boat ride from the shores of Taveuni Island and sightings of reef fish, giant traveli, various shark species and the occasional manta ray are part and parcel of a dive excursion.
For snorkellers, life simply doesn’t get better - the warm, tropical waters are brimming with brilliantly coloured reef fish.

Dangerous animals, poisonous snakes and spiders and tropical diseases such as malaria are non-existent on Taveuni.
