Europa's Visit To Savusavu



The German cruise liner Europa made a unexpected visit to Savusavu a few weeks ago, with about 250 passengers.

Bad weather diverted her to our shores, which was a blessing for the handy craft sellers & villages who had organized tours to their village.

There aren't many tourist around this part of the country at the moment, so this was a great help for the local traders.

Passengers were seen walking around town visiting the little shops along the shore, so this at least, was a help to the local businesses.

Europa didn't arrive into the port until Midday & left round 8.00pm.
It was a pleasant day in Town, sunshine, with a slight breeze to keep the visitors cool.

The passengers seemed very happy with their visit to our town, Savusavu is a little different to other Fijian ports of call.
