MONURIKI WHERE SEA TURTLES NEST
The vegetation consists mainly of pandanus and coconut trees. The island is home to a number of Fiji-crested iguanas as well as being a nesting place for sea turtles. Monuriki is very scenic and its lagoon is perfect for snorkeling. Sea turtles nest in Fiji between November and April. Four species of sea turtles are found in the waters of Fiji: the Caretta caretta (Loggerhead sea turtle), the Chelonia mydas (Green sea turtle), the Eretmochelys imbricata (Hawksbill sea turtle), and the Dermochelys coriacea (Leatherback sea turtle).
Around Monuriki there are some islands of the Mamanuca archipelago. To the north of Monuriki is the island of Monu, from which it is separated by about 600 meters of the sea. While the island of Yanuya is located 2.5 km northeast. The island of Tavua is located less than 5 km east of Monuriki. The small island of Matamanoa is located less than 4 km southeast of Monuriki.
