savu savu


savu savu is an entry port in the island of vanua levu. it is the northern most island of the group of over 300 islands that make up this amazing place called fiji. we entered the lagoon and went to the copra shed marina at the entrance of the manuka creek. the marina has been the most boat friendly place we have seen so far. affordable moorings and dock, super internet, gas station just around the corner, shops and the fresh market just feet from us. the prices have been the best and the variety incredible. there are tangerines, all sorts of spices, veggies, fruits, fish, crafts and excellent bread. the restaurants have spicy food with lots of curry and roti. the place is very influenced by indians and the indian population is huge. the people are very friendly. we are surrounded by many sailboats, quite a contrast from the quiet wallis. we have met old friends from boats we’ve seen along our path and made new friends form literally all over the world. the entire bay is pristine and the city itself is very clean. a very interesting place that we will come back to any time!
