Just off the coast of Taveuni, Fiji is the private island where Qamea Resort & Spa resides. This boutique getaway provides a serene experience with its guarantee to never have more than 30 guests at a time residing in its luxurious villas. These villas, or bures, include outdoor showers and a private pool or Jacuzzi tub, and are set amongst a lush tapestry of coconut palms and vibrant tropical gardens. Behind this oasis are the jagged peaks of volcanic South Pacific mountains, and before it are the snow-white sands and dazzling clear waters of the resort’s private beach that’s over a kilometer long.
A harmonized combination of pampering and thrills are offered at Qamea, as it features the only Guinot Spa in the South Pacific, a PADI 5-Star accredited dive shop, stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, snorkeling at one of the top ten snorkeling reefs in the world, catered picnic lunches beside cascading jungle waterfalls, coastal and mountain hikes, yoga, and of course, surfing.
Between November and April, Qamea Resort & Spa is a surfer’s paradise, accommodating surfing at the secluded and untapped breaks of North Fiji. A short 15-minute boat ride transports surfers to three main breaks, with the premiere one
being a long right that starts as a grinding barrel, turns into a rippable face and ends with a mellow section before dissolving into deep water. In addition, families with surfers in a range of skill levels will be pleased to discover the expert on-site surf program accommodates beginners to pros.
