Enjoy Fiji, but avoid isolated Tailevu

‘Avoid that isolated anchorage, as there is no security,’ is the advice from Fijians after an attack in Tailevu.

However, Fijians have responded strongly to suggestions that the pristine waters and snorkelling paradise of Fiji have become dangerous for cruising sailors. As reported recently by Sail-World, two Australians were attacked and robbed in the early hours of the morning while sleeping in their boat in Tailevu.
