Swim through a mysterious underwater tunnel and emerge at a glowing wall of snow-white coral. Frolic beneath the cascade of a picture-perfect waterfall. Trek up a verdant jungle mountain while spotting rare wild birds, then marvel at a soaring, peerless view of azure ocean and turquoise lagoon. Taveuni Island is the site of so many perfect holiday adventures that the only difficulty you'll experience is in deciding which aspect of its lush, thriving natural world to enjoy first. Known as the garden island of Fiji, Taveuni boasts 110,000 acres of virgin rain forest blanketing ancient volcanic mountains.

Rich in rare flora and fauna, Taveuni Island is a bird-watcher's Eden and a sun-worshipper's dream come true. Scuba divers and snorkelers become addicted to Taveuni's abundance of underwater adventures, and sailors and surfers find the island nothing less than a scenic wonderland. Taveuni's Lake Tagimaucia fills a volcanic crater and is one of the only extant environments where the rare and beautiful tagimaucia flower grows. Adrenaline junkies visiting Taveuni will love the Waitavala volcanic water-slide—yet another way to experience the natural thrills and pure, warm waters of Taveuni Island.

With approximately one-third of the island falling under the protection of the Bouma National Heritage Park, Taveuni can be considered a premier example of eco-tourism at its best. Four local villages help to manage the splendid park and maintain its pleasant hiking trails, gleaming waterfalls, and world-class coral reefs. When you have spent your day enjoying all the exotic adventures afforded by this true natural playground, enjoy an evening warming to the genuine smiles of Fijian islanders.  Experience the traditional kava ceremony, a spa treatment, or simply relaxing around a beach barbecue where Taveuni Island revellers can swap adventure stories and plan for the next day's unforgettable outings.

With all the vivid sights of Bouma National Heritage Park and Lavena Nature Reserve, as well as magnificent Rainbow Reef, Taveuni Island is a unique and lovely location that could take months to fully explore. Those who love to bask in every experience the island offers will not be disappointed, yet couples who seek nothing more than splendid isolation on a perfect beach will also find their bliss. It's an undeniable fact: Taveuni, the garden island of Fiji, simply never disappoints.
