International Beaches?







Description

Mana Island is part of the Mamanuca Islands, the closest group of islands to the tourist area near Nadi, Fiji. Access is via ferry or, as Mana has its own airstrip, a short 15 minute flight from Nadi airport.
Mana Island is home to Mana Island resort, which owns half the island. The other half belongs to Fijian landowners from nearby Malolo Island. The resort lies between North and South Beach and has restaurants and accomodation at both areas.
North Beach has great sunbaking, swimming and snorkelling.

Name

In Fijian folklore Mana is a mystical force gifted to the ancestors by the gods. Legend has it in ancient times Tura travelled from Egypt through Africa and Asia before eventually settling in the Fijian Islands. Unfortunately during a storm in the waters off the Mamanuka Island group he lost the tribes chest of Mana.
