The Setting > Taveuni

Be the first to see the sun rise. Yes, it's true! The International Date Line runs through only two landmasses in the world, and Taveuni is one of them. One of the most beautiful of Fiji's 300-plus islands, known as the "garden island" Taveuni will envelope you in its splendor, embrace you with its culture, and excite you with its passion. Whether you long to relax, or you live to discover, your desires will be fulfilled.

Among the many activities Taveuni offers are coastal walks, horseback riding, golf and tennis, fishing, sailing, and kayaking, plus diving trips to top-rated sites. (PADI diving certification courses are available.) Fiji is famous for its warm, crystal-clear waters. Combining soft and hard corals, brilliant colors and diverse marine life, the diving off Taveuni is truly spectacular. The snorkeling is also first class, whether just off the beach or off the outer reefs. Nature lovers will enjoy guided treks through villages, or up to amazing waterfalls and natural water slides. You may enjoy being part of traditional Fijian cultural ceremonies such as drinking kava, dancing and local music performances. Perhaps you will choose to just relax on the deck while having a massage. Each day the choice is yours.
