Bouma Falls and Lavena area (Ravilevu) Nature Reserves
Bouma Falls is one of the most beautiful spots on Taveuni.
Located in Tavoro National Park, it is a perfect half- or
full-day trip. Bouma Falls actually consists of three waterfalls:
the first is an easy ten-minute walk from the main road.
The waterfall is approximately 100 feet (30 meters) in height
and falls into a large pool where one can go swimming and
dive off the rocks. A wonderful trail has been built up
to a second waterfall which is a worthwhile trip for the
more adventurous. About 60 feet high and perhaps more dramatic,
this second waterfall takes about thirty minutes to reach
from the first along a well-manicured trail which has steps,
handrails and benches for rest stops. The walk to the third
and final waterfall -which is only about 25 feet high (8m)-
takes about thirty minutes but the path is not as well kept.
However, the beauty of this waterfall is in the remoteness
of the area and the perfect stillness.
