Kenutu Island
Kenutu
An uninhabited small island on the eastern edge of Vava'u. Cliffs on its east coast face the huge Pacific swells, while the west coast has calm white sand and clear shallow water.
Kenutu lies on the eastern outer edge of the group. On one side is a calm sandy beach on the inner sea. On the other, a path across the island leads to the limestone cliffs on the east side, where you can watch long Pacific swells crash against the shore, a dramatic contrast. Nearby Uma and Lotu islands are good for snorkelling and kayaking. The island has no facilities, so go by charter boat or kayak tour, and take care when walking along the cliff edge.
