Wainibau Falls

Wainibau Falls



Wainibau Falls is a very beautiful waterfall at the end of the scenic 5km Lavena Coastal Walk. There is actually a second waterfall adjacent to the main falls, but you'll have to swim in order to see it. Allow yourself at least a half day to enjoy the area.

Lavena sits at the end of the unsealed main road in Eastern Taveuni. If you hire a kayak or the motorized boat (which we used to see the Savulevu Yavonu Waterfall), it's possible to reduce the amount of hiking to see the falls. More details about this option are in the Savulevu Yavonu Waterfall page.

Of course the locals like to point out that this stretch of coast (as well as other parts of Taveuni Island as well as Qamea) were filmed in the movie "The Blue Lagoon." I recently saw the movie and definitely could tell it was indeed in Taveuni :)
