Visit Levuka: Fiji’s Only UNESCO World Heritage Site
Levuka was Fiji’s capital for only 8 years before it was moved to Suva in 1882 but the town’s roots stretch back to much humbler beginnings as a whaling station, decades earlier.

Hemmed in by 600m cliffs, the picturesque UNESCO World Heritage town oozes old-world charm from the tip of its clock tower church to the rows of weatherboard buildings that line the aptly named Beach Street.
You can brush up on the town’s ‘colourful’ history at the community centre in the middle of town where they’ll set you up with a guided walking tour of many Fiji firsts – like the first school, post office and newspaper. Make sure you top off your tour with a cold drink at the historic Ovalau Club or grab lunch at the Royal Hotel (circa 1860s) – the Pacific’s oldest operating hotel.
