History of the Yasawa Islands

The Yasawas were first sighted by Captain Bligh (of Mutiny on the Bounty fame) in May 1789, though no survey or charts were commenced until some 50 years later. For the most part, the islands were of little interest to European traders or settlers and so they continued to be quite remote and isolated. During the second world war, the US military set up communications posts in the islands. Today, the Yasawas are one of the most popular regions in Fiji for international tourism.
