Products / Accommodation / Fiji / Beqa Lagoon Resort

Sensational diving on a paradise island !
Beqa Island Resort offers guests the chance to dive and enjoy Fijian hospitality in comfort and style. No additional flights are needed within Fiji!

Beeqa Lagoon Resort - FijiBeqa Island
Beqa (pronounced Benga) Island lies in Beqa Lagoon, located just 8 km south off the main island of Viti Levu. From Nadi International Airport it's a scenic 2.5 hour drive followed by a 30 minute boat ride to the island

Surrounded by a large barrier reef, one of the most striking features of Beqa Island is its seclusion. There are no roads, no towns and only a few isolated villages scattered around the perimeter. Steep rainforest covered mountains shelter the west coast from wind and waves, and most of the island's beaches are found there.

The Resort
Beqa Island Resort is a remote island paradise far away from the the big resorts and the crowds on the main island. The beautiful Balinese-style bures and public meeting places are spread out amongst the lush vegetation and water gardens.
During the day, guests can relax around the lovely infinity pool or unwind with a soothing aromatic massage.

Beqa Lagoon ResortAlthough the resort grounds are neatly maintained the flora & fauna of the island is never far away as colourful island critters still have free range of the island!
At night crabs very often march across the lawn to the beach.

Just behind the resort the land slopes gently upward into a tropical forest. Further into the forest there's a fresh water stream descending from a waterfall just about a mile from the resort. Here the thick jungle vegetation occasionally gives way to small fields of sweet potatoes, pineapples and taro root, but all in all, the land remains pristine. Tropical flowers bloom everywhere, and the tables at the resort are always filled with fresh cuttings.

If you hike a short way up the hillside, you'll find yourself at the base of an impressive waterfall. After cooling off for a while in the pool you can hike further up the path and the top of the trail offers great sunset views over the entire lagoon. With a little more time & effort it is possible hike to the top of the mountain to enjoy stunning views over the entire island.

Coral ReefsDiving
Beqa Lagoon is surrounded by over 190 miles of spectacular coral reef. Within the lagoon, the water is clear and warm, visibility is typically over 100 feet, currents are mild, and the water temperature stays a fairly constant 80 F (26C). Many of the most spectacular dive spots are only a few minutes from shore, and if you stayed long enough, you could explore over 100 different reefs! The dive masters at Beqa Lagoon have been diving in these waters since they were children and are some of the most consciencious people you will ever meet. They know every reef and coral head, and if you stay close they will show you some of the most intriguing creatures around - Blue Ribbon Eels, Clown Triggers, Lion Fish, Leaf Scorpions, Reef Sharks and millions of colorful Anthias and Fusiliers all inhabit these waters.

Twice a week, it is possible to join the word-famous Beqa Shark feeds directly from Beqa Lagoon Resort. One of the resort's dive boats will take you and your dive guides to a special site inside the lagoon where up to ten bull sharks, silver tips, grey nurse and the occasional tiger shark meet to be hand-fed by dive masters from Aquatrek or Beqa Adventure Divers. These sharks have been studied for many years; the larger ones are about 9ft/3mtrs long, and it is an awesome experience to see them circling only metres away. These dives need to be booked in additional to the regular accommodation/dive packages.

Surfing
Surf the Fiji Pipeline! “Voted one of the best two waves in Fiji.”
Powerful, fast developing world class left with prevailing offshore winds, Frigate Passage (also known as Fiji Pipeline) is located on the southwestern barrier reef of the island of Beqa, just a short distance from Beqa Lagoon Resort. Frigate Passage offers the ideal conditions that naturally generate these kind of world class waves. Come surf the Fiji Pipeline and live the island way without the crowds, stress, and traffic of the mainland.

Accommodation
The private villas (called bures) are large and luxurious. Just steps from the beach, each bure is elegantly furnished with rattan and bamboo and decorated with colorful splashes of fabric and works of art.
Bure at Beqa ResortEvery Deluxe Beachfront Bure has its own spacious courtyard with a plunge pool and bamboo fence to ensure your privacy. The honeymoon bure also has a romantic private outdoor shower.
The Deluxe Garden View Bures are the newest addition to the resort, built into beautifully landscaped koi ponds. Wooden bridges lead to their cosy terraces.
All bures are air conditioned mini-suites with spectacular marble tiled bathrooms. Each porch has a table, lounge chairs and a wonderful view. Cosy hammock's can be found just a few metres walk away!
In addition the resort also offers 2-bedroom bures that are perfect for families.

Meals
Laniana, the resort chef, prepares a wide variety of dishes that please even the most discerning palates. The presentation is always beautiful, and make sure you leave a little room for the gorgeous desserts ! The open air Bure Kalou (dining room) is scenic and refreshing which makes dining at Beqa Lagoon an unexpectedly pleasant blend of high class dining and casual elegance.

Meal packages offer 28 main course choices every week with all tastes and dietary requirements catered for. Fresh seafood is, of course, very much on the menu along with an array of Fijian & International delights.

Reef Snorkeling
One of the resort’s distinctive features is that coral reef heads thrive just a few feet from the beach. Even if you do not dive, you will be able to see many wonders of Beqa Lagoon, such as clown fish, lion fish, lobsters, live corals and lots of other tropical creatures. Just grab a mask & snorkel, step out from the beach and you're away.
A secluded island picnic is another way to spend your time – a resort boat can be arranged to take you to a nearby deserted island where you can snorkel and sunbathe.

Kayaking
Single or double kayaks are available to explore the neighbouring islands and beautiful beaches of Beqa Island.

Other Activities
Hike to a waterfall or to the top of the mountain, visit the local villages or see the WWII American gun site. Beqa has no roads so there is a network of tracks linking the villages around the island. Play volleyball, horse shoes or croquet and see if you can beat the locals!
Bird watching – Beqa has oneof the biggest varieties of birdlife in Fiji.
Island hopping is another option – they'll provide you with a boat and driver, and you can choose where you want to explore!

Turtle - KadavuLocal culture
Beqa Island is very unspoilt and rich in culture and history, many of the villagers actually work in the resort and no stay is complete without a visit to one of the villages. Locals also provide cultural and musical entertainment
in the evenings!

Getting to/from Beqa
Your international flight into Fiji will take you into Nadi on Fiji's main island of Viti Levu.
From there you are transferred by road to Pacific Harbour (approx 2.5 hours) from where it's a short boat ride to the island. No extra flights are needed within Fiji!
