Activities

Cruise up a wild river to swim in a cool freshwater rapid and wonder at mangroves over 30m high. Perhaps even see a crocodile!

See the well-preserved remains of a WWII American fighter plane that crashed into the lagoon in 1944.

Maroon yourself on an isolated beach for your own private picnic and swim or snorkel.

Experience the hustle and bustle of Batuna market; shop at the store or do your banking (VISA required). Enjoy a tour through the lagoon as you travel to the township.

Marvel at hundreds of Frigate Birds returning after a day’s foraging to roost in the tall trees of this uninhabited atoll at sunset. Enjoy a late afternoon and early evening cruise through the southern part of the lagoon as an added bonus. 

Go on a guided night-time adventure to find and catch coconut crabs, then eat them fresh for dinner!

Accompanied by knowledgeable villagers, travel to known fishing hot-spots and catch your dinner. Giant Trevally, Skipjack Tuna and Dog-tooth Tuna are rare, but known, large species caught in the lagoon. Other more common species include Blue-Finned Trevally, Coral Trout, Emperor, Parrotfish, and Spanish Mackerel.

Bunikalo is the port village 3km from Tibara. There is a rough, yet safe walking track between the villages. Be guided on a walk through the bush to Bunikalo, visit the well-equipped local store, then travel back to Tibara by canoe.
