The River
Sigatoka River is the longest river in Viti Levu (Fiji). Running from the hills of the Navosa Province right down to the sand dunes in Kulukulu.
The river provides locals with fresh water mussels (kai), fresh fish, prawns, eels, water for agriculture and for drinking.
The river was used as the only means of transport from the coast to the interior right up until the late 1950´s. The travel time for many villagers from Navosa in those days was 3 days down alone, with the return journey being even longer.
Today this river is now open to tourists and locals to see first hand the natural beauty of the river and interior, all from the comfort of the safari jet boat.
