Savusavu

Savusavu is a coastal town on Vanua Levu island that features warm natural hot springs, lush rainforests, volcanic hills, and clear waters ideal for marine exploration and outdoor activities.

Originally a traditional Fijian settlement, Savusavu developed as a center for local fishing and coconut plantations while serving as a historic hub for early Polynesian settlers and later interactions with foreign explorers.

The town hosts a diverse community that maintains traditional Fijian ceremonies, craft-making, music, and dance performances, with local markets selling handmade goods and fresh produce reflecting indigenous customs and daily life.

Visitors can reach Savusavu by regional flights and boat services, with accommodations ranging from eco-lodges to resorts, and the best travel period is during the dry season from May to October.

Savusavu operates several pearl farms where visitors can observe the complete cultivation process of cultured pearls, from seeding to harvesting, and purchase jewelry directly from the showrooms on site.
