Travel to Kadavu Island

Kadavu Island is the home of the famous Great Astrolabe Reef, the fourth biggest barrier reef in the world. The island is an outdoor mecca and attracts surfers from around the world with its unexplored surfing breaks. Parts of the island are rarely visited by tourists so it is perfect for those that want to get off the beaten track.
Local customs have hardly changed in this untamed holiday destination. You may be invited to share kava or visit a village for a meal and you’ll probably have to get there by foot as roads are few and most transport is by boat. You may also stay at remote beaches or near a local village.
For remote Kadavu Island accommodation, head to Waisalima Beach to get close to The Great Astrolabe Reef and enjoy spectacular diving. Stay in a traditional thatched bure and wake to the sound of birdsong in the morning. Kadavu Island accommodation has one of Fiji’s best eco-resorts -head there for traditional style bungalows and snorkelling in crystal clear water. The resort is a great option for families.
Romance is also catered for on your Kadavu Island holiday. Book yourself into a secluded resort on a hidden beach and go for a couple’s morning of kayaking followed by swimming in the numerous mountain streams.

Best of Kadavu Island
What to see and do in Kadavu Island ?
One of the best way to explore the island is by boat. You can either take an organised cruise or hire a boat driver for the day. It beats taking a taxi as you cruise over the ocean to your destination. Kadavu Island is a great place to experience local culture as it less developed as the rest of Fiji. Or you can just relax and take the time to enjoy this beautiful spot.
If you are feeling fit, spend a day hiking Mt. Washington, an inactive volcano that erupted within the last 3000 years. Take a boat to the western end of the island and tackle the 822m tall mountain.
The Great Astrolabe Reef is one of the largest reefs in the world and remains relatively unspoilt. It is a breeding ground for large bill fish such as marlin. Ono Island, located just off Kadavu, gives great access to the reef. With perfect water temperatures year round and up to 40m visibility on a windless day, The Great Astrolabe Reef is a special place to visit.
If you haven’t surfed before, Kadavu is the place to learn. It has uncrowded surfing breaks that attract pros from around the world. Book yourself a lesson and become a surfing master in no time.
For something a little less active book yourself a multi-day kayak tour. You can choose where to go or let your guide take you to their favourite spots. While out kayaking you have the chance to do some dolphin or whale watching. The island is a known viewing spot for these amazing creatures.
Keen fisherman are provided for on Kavadu. Experienced guides will take you to their favourite fishing locations. Be patient and you could fight a huge marlin or reel in the rare mahi-mahi.
One of the best things to do on the island and one that will leave you with the best memories, is to participate in a local kava ceremony. Present a gift of kava to the local village chief and join the ceremony. Drink with the villagers and experience the relaxing effects – although you may wonder why your tongue is going numb. After the ceremony join a ‘meke’, a night of dancing and singing which is unique to each village. Finish the night feasting on food cooked underground in a traditional lovo – an oven built into the ground.
