It sits 75 kilometres away from Suva and its busy streets.
Ono Beach and Mai Beach are perfect locations if you're after somewhere to relax by the ocean.
The nearby localities of Navua and Pacific Harbour are worth having a look at. They're located 75 kilometres northwest and 80 kilometres northwest away, respectively. Get in a car and see what they're about!
When it comes time to release your inner adventurer, sign yourself up for some hiking. That said, there aren't many better ways to experience the beauty of the region's landscapes than with a little horse riding.
Spending a couple of hours outside is fuel for the soul. If you're feeling stressed, why not give yourself a break by going shore fishing or beach combing?
Few things marry extreme thrills with a sense of peacefulness quite like sky diving. Head up into the heavens and be awed by the passing landscapes below.
Sure, it's nice to be close to the water, but it's going to be heaps more fun to be on or in it! Don't pass up the chance to try out the region's wonderful watersports, such as swimming and snorkeling.
The region's art galleries and craft workshops offer something for visitors of all ages. Step through the doors and find out what's happening.
If you were to ask some locals about activities in the surrounding area, they'll often suggest the lovely open-air markets.
Lovers of history will appreciate the area's traditional villages. If that's you, do a little research and select one to swing by first.

Whether you prefer the opulence of Michelin stars or munching on a snack from a street stall, tasting the local food and drink is one of the most amazing things about travel. So why not tingle your taste buds by trying some of the area's decadent offerings?
Sweet potato and coconut are just two popular ingredients used in many dishes here. If you don't have a love for them already, you will by the end of your journey!
Ask a local what to eat in Yakuve Island and kokodo (marinated raw fish) will probably be up there with the first things they mention. Palusami (steamed meat with coconut and taro leaves) is another of the region's signature foods you'll want to try.
Dessert is always a good idea on holiday, so why not tuck into some mixed rootcrops dessert? It's worth every delicious calorie!
Is there anything more satisfying than throwing back an ice-cold beer topped off with a perfect foam head? Satisfy your thirst and mingle with the locals over a round of Fiji Taki Beer.
Want to get your night going? A shot of Bounty White Rum ought to do the trick! Neat or on the rocks — it doesn't matter!
Knowing how to say a couple of words in the local tongue will make your journey through the Fiji region that little bit less challenging. Try to pronounce 'Vanuinui vinaka ki na siga ni kua'. It translates as 'have a nice day'. 'O yau mai ...', which means 'I am from..', is another one you might need.
Want to join in on the Constitution Day celebrations? Mark the 7th of September in your diary and get ready to let your hair down with the locals!
Thankfully Yakuve Island isn't planning on moving anywhere, so this "Ni sa moce" doesn't need to be your last!
