The Vava'u Group has become a thriving tourist destination and a popular stopover for yachts cruising the Pacific Ocean primarily due to its geography. The area features a myriad of islands to the south of Vava'u Island, which provide numerous fine beaches and protected anchorages. Additionally, the island of Vava'u itself is noted for its fine, sheltered, landlocked harbour and several unique coastal caves formed by the erosion of coral and limestone rock.12
