Taveuni Island trip planner

Known as the Garden Island, Taveuni is a tropical paradise of tall mountains draped in lush rainforest, filled with delicate wildflowers and colorful birds, and dotted with cascading waterfalls. Visitors here have plenty to explore, from hiking trails among the peaks of long-dormant volcanoes, to the black sand beaches those volcanoes left behind. The natural wonders extend into the surrounding sea, where breathtaking coral reefs drop off into the blue depths, while a local marine park teems with fish and other sealife. Once the site of a famous battle against a Tongan invasion force, today an ancient fortified village remains the only indication of the idyllic island's violent history.
