Kadavu's Matava Dive Resort

Matava - the Astrolabe Hideaway - is located on the southern coastline of Kadavu, Fiji's fourth largest island. Here you can experience people, nature and culture. It is a comfortable, casual resort offering many adventure activities, such as kayaking, waterfall treks, birdwatching, and of course excellent scuba diving in the nearby Great Astrolabe Reef - the fourth largest reef in the world and Fiji's largest living organism. Matava is a member of the Fiji Ecotourism Association.

Highlights of this video clip are graceful manta rays, local children, a Kadavu parrot nonchalantly nibbling on a hot chilli, and a Fijian child cracking open a coconut with a machete - the coconut is in her hand! Fijians learn this skill from an early age. Your visual visit to Matava includes scenes of waterfalls, bird chicks, sharks, turtles, dolphins as well as arriving at Vunisea by local air flight, local villagers, the resort and its traditional bures, and casual dining.
