Shared toilets and showers
Fatutu Bungalows provide a unique newly-weds or couple getaway. An airport transfer takes you to the Ijaro Lagoon where a 1km outrigger canoe ride then takes you straight to your bungalow. A motorised boat is available subject to the quantity of petrol on the island. However, it's far more enjoyable to take a leisurely trip across the tidal lagoon by canoe that puts you in the mood for a relaxing visit.

Walking / Swimming / SnorkellingLong beach walks on the secluded lagoon are a feature of your stay on Aniwa - guides are available to point out plants, shells and fish indigenous to the island. They will also take you to the newly created Turtle Sanctuary.
Swimming is safe for all ages in the lagoon which is not deep even at high tide. Since November 2007, netting and spearing of fish and turtles in the lagoon has been made taboo by the local village. It is no surprise then that there are many varied species returning there and it is now fast becoming a nursery to dozens of fish and turtle species.
Outside the lagoon, the open waters are host to beautiful coral reefs. This is where guides on outrigger canoes will accompany you to view the vast reefs and many fish species.
Turtles / Coconut CrabsFrom November to April each year you can witness Green and Hawk Nosed turtles laying eggs on the white sand beaches of the lagoon - guides are available on request to assist locating them.
Coconut crabs also inhabit the west shoreline of the lagoon and again, guides will again assist you in hunting them down for a photograph or two.
