The Vanua Levu project is a key priority for the Ministry of Tourism over the next 12 months.
While speaking after the announcement of the 2025–2026 National Budget, Minister for Tourism Viliame Gavoka said that currently, only 4 percent of tourism numbers are attributed to Vanua Levu, and the Ministry aims to boost this in the next budget year.
Gavoka also highlighted that one of the current challenges is the imbalance between the number of airline seats and the availability of hotel rooms.
He says the Ministry wants to expand tourism activities, promote more authentic attractions, and create additional experiences across the country.
The Minister also highlighted that they have a Tourism Sustainable Framework, and a major focus of that is to develop tourism outside the current tourism hotspots.
