Nukulau, Small islet near Suva, Fiji.
Nukulau extends across a patch of land in the Pacific Ocean, featuring white sand beaches and clear waters 5 kilometers from Suva's coast.
The United States consul John Brown Williams purchased this islet for thirty dollars in 1846, leading to events that influenced Fiji's British colonization.
Local Fijian communities maintain connections to Nukulau through generations of stories about the island's transformation from prison to public space.
Visitors pay a 2 dollar entrance fee to access the island's facilities, including bathroom amenities, camping areas, and barbecue stands.
From 1879 to 1916, the islet operated as a quarantine station for Indian laborers arriving to work on Fiji's sugar plantations.
