The Taveuni Island region

Taveuni Island, commonly known as the “Garden Island of Fiji” is the third largest of the Fijian Islands.

It is located at the north eastern extent of Fiji.

The majority of Taveuni is covered with indigenous forest with extinct volcanic cones. This gives a rugged and untouched landscape. It is home to indigenous wildlife and plants that are unique to Taveuni such as the Tagimaucia Flower and the endangered Taveuni Parakeets.

The significant amount of water that is required to pass between Taveuni and the mainland between high and low tides result in strong ocean currents that create the perfect conditions for the formation of soft and hard coral reefs. Accordingly, the Rainbow Reef is considered one of the most spectacular diving and snorkelling reefs within the Pacific Islands. Dive sites such as the world famous Great White Wall attract enthusiasts and journalists from all to witness the underworld beauty (see National Geographic November 2004 issue).
