Discover Navala - Last true traditional Fiji village


Duration: 9.4 hour(s) - Location: Navala, Ba

Tucked away in the highlands of Fiji is the quaint village of Navala, the last village in Fiji where traditionally built homes are still retained. The picturesque village is nestled beside the winding Ba River with a rugged mountainous range backdrop.

Fiji is an archipelago of 330 islands with less than half being permanently inhabited by a blend of races. Navala village gives you a glimpse of what the Fiji Islands would look like when the natives were the only inhabitants. It is a trip to the past with over 150 simple bures (huts) built traditionally from bamboo, reeds and hardwood beams blending in perfectly with the natural surroundings.
