The Mamanuca Islands of Fiji are a volcanic archipelago lying to the west of Viti Levu and to the south of the Yasawa Islands. The group, a popular tourist destination, consists of about 20 islands, but about 7 of these are covered by the Pacific Ocean at high tide. Malololailai is the centre of the tourism industry in the Mamanucas.
The Mamanucas are home to many of Fiji's more traditional resorts, such as Mana, Beachcomber, Castaway, and Plantation Island. The islands offer ideal conditions for boating, scuba diving, snorkeling and other water-based activities. Other attractions include dolphin spotting, bushwalking, fishing and village tours.
