Review:
The Lavena Coastal Walk is a delightful walking/hiking trail on Taveuni Island that leads visitors along a stunning stretch of coast and through some tropical rainforest to a beautiful hidden waterfall. The full trail (in and out) is about 10km in total, but if that sounds a bit too much like hard work you can arrange for a one-way motor boat transfer, which will reduce the hike to a manageable 5km. Although it is easy to follow the trail on your own, you should consider hiring a local guide who will be able to explain much of the flora and fauna you will encounter along the walk. At the end of the trail you can swim through a gorge right up to the base of the waterfall, and be rewarded for your efforts by discovering a second hidden waterfall that only swimmers can see.
