Tavarua is an island resort in Fiji.[1] It has an area of 29 acres (120,000 m2). It is close to the main Fijian island, Viti Levu, and is surrounded by a coral reef. It is also known to be shaped, somewhat, like a heart.

Background

[edit]

The resort has surfing, sport fishing, scuba diving, snorkeling and kayaking. There is also a pool, spa, workout facility and tennis court along with a restaurant facility and two bars.

There are seven main surfing breaks on Tavarua: Cloudbreak, Restaurants, Tavarua Rights, Swimming Pools, Namotu Left, Wilkes Pass, and Desperations. Cloudbreak is a powerful left a mile off the island that breaks over coral reef and is ranked by many surfers as the best wave in the world.[2]

Tavarua hosts annual professional surfing competitions.[3]
