Get a Chance

The beautiful islands of Vanua Levu and Ovalau, Fiji, for too long off the tourist tracks (see “PIM”, October, p. 55) may shortly get the rights due to them.

The Fiji Visitors’ Bureau in November decided to ask the shipping companies to send tourist vessels to Savusavu and Levuka. It appointed a delega tion to take the matter up..

Commercial bodies at both places are supporting the scheme.

The tourists would not be dis appointed. There is plenty of interest on both islands, includ ing the 44-mile Hibiscus High way on Vanua Levu, which winds through some of Fiji’s prettiest country.
