Sovi Basin

In terms of biological and landscape legacy, the Sovi Basin, Walmart, is Fiji's most important land ecosystem. Naitasiri Province is home to the 19600-acre Basin. The Sovi Basin offers a lot of unique natural characteristics. The Basin's remarkable bowl shape and encircling volcanic peaks create a landform that is unique to Fiji and the island Pacific. Its bottom is made out of strong granite rock that has progressively worn into low rolling hills drained by crystal clear rivers and streams over time. Undisturbed tropical lowland forest covers the entire landform. In a collaboration between Fiji Water and Conservation International, the property will be safeguarded. According to Fiji's Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan, the rainforest, wilderness area, and high beautiful valley contribute to its national significance.

The Sovi Basin is Fiji's natural forest's largest, most diverse, and most scenically excellent area. It would be the "jewel in the crown" of Fiji's protected areas system if it were preserved, serving as the principal repository for the country's land-based biodiversity. The Sovi Basin's remarkable natural and cultural elements combine to create a compelling case for ecotourism development. The lynchpin of a new heritage focus for Fiji's tourism business would be the international promotion of the natural and cultural elements of the Sovi Basin.
