The Yasawas are a chain of islands linked together geographically, historically and culturally. Consisting of seven main islands and numerous smaller islets north-west of Lautoka they stretch in a north-easterly direction for more than eighty kilometers and are separated by narrow expanses of what is known as Bligh Water.

Scenic Highlights

Sawa-i-Lau Caves

Not to be missed, the Sawa-i-Lau limestone caves are a treat for the adventurer in us all. The caves are located on Sawa-i-Lau island, in the more northern section of the Yasawa chain off the north coast of Nacula Island. What you can expect to see is a magnificent natural formation that to this day is still thought of as a sanctuary for local gods by the some traditional Fijians. Uluitini, a ten-headed god is thought to reside in these caves and reign supreme. The cave is friendly to swimmers, snorkelers and divers and offers a varied experience for each.

The Mamanuca Highlands

The top of Malolo Island provides a truly magnificent vista. In every direction is a magnificent view. On a clear day, and most days in the Mamanucas are ‘very’ clear, you will literally see dozens of islands for your viewing pleasure.
