Viti Levu's Kings Road

Introducing Viti Levu's Kings Road

Less touristed than the Coral Coast's highway, Viti Levu's Kings Rd courses through the island's interior, traversing farmland and remote highland villages. It lacks the coastal scenery of the Queens Rd but matches its beauty with highland ascents and kilometres of untouched landscapes. Meeting the northern coast at Viti Levu Bay, it then skirts the shoreline to its final destination at Lautoka, ribboning its way past rugged cliffs and an infinite ocean. It's a beautiful trip by bus or 4WD. The road is unsealed between Korovou and Dama and some skill is required here, particularly in the wet.Another road follows the coast to Natovi Landing (about a 20-minute drive), from where there are bus and ferry services to Labasa on Vanua Levu and Levuka on Ovalau.
