Iconic Landmark: Sacred Heart Church
This is one of Levuka’s most striking architectural sites – an old Gothic Revival Catholic church built in the late 1850s that doubles as a lighthouse. You can’t miss the Sacred Heart Church; you’ll hear it everywhere you go in Levuka.

It has a 24-metre-high stone tower with a French clock that strikes twice every hour with a minute pause between strikes.
Built between swaying coconut trees, the church's historical concrete tower stands out from the surrounding foliage. Its neon-lit green cross serves much more purpose than simply marking it as a place of worship. When lined up with another neon green light further inland, it helps mark the gap in the reef and guides ships safely into the harbour at night.
