Getting there & away
Boat
The Government Wharf for large vessels, including Spirit of Free Enterprise (SOFE) and Adi Savusavu, is about 1km from Waiyevo, towards Naqara. Smaller boats depart from the Korean Wharf, a bit further north. Consort Shipping(888 0339; First Light Inn, Waiyevo), Beachcomber Cruises (888 0036; Wathi-po-ee Restaurant, Naqara) and Suilven Shipping (888 0261) have regular Suva-Savusavu-Taveuni ferries with competitive rates. Suilven is the most comfortable and reliable service. Grace Ferry (888 0320; Naqara) runs a bus/boat trip to Savusavu and Labasa ($20). The boat departs from the Korean Wharf at 8.45am. The booking office is the green building in Naqara - ask locals for directions.
Air
The flights between Taveuni and Viti Levu are stunning, giving you a chance to peer down at the gorgeous reefs. At Matei airport, both Sun Air (888 0461) and Air Fiji (888 0062) have at least two flights daily to/from Nadi (1½ hours) and also Savusavu, but be aware that both routes are often heavily booked. Air Fiji flies twice daily to Suva as well (45 minutes).
