Buy A Coral, Build A Reef Programme On Tivua Island

“This is where we educate tourists and locals and create awareness on the factors affecting corals and diversifying it,” Mr Waqanivalu said.

Tivua island in the Mamanuca Islands is a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life with white sandy beach and colourful coral reefs.

Tivua is primarily accessed via Port Denarau with cruising time of approximately 90 minutes to the island.

Captain Cook Cruises offers a day-trip to the island and is on top of the list for many locals and tourists in the country. On the Island are marine biologists Abraham Waqairoba and Joeli Waqanivalu.

The duo graduated from the University of the South Pacific with a Bachelor of Marine Science and they have taken the step to protect corals and sustainability on Tivua island.
