Natadola Beach in Fiji is an idyllic resort well-known by honeymooners and is considered one of the finest beaches in the world.

Natadola Beach is the site of the 1.2K Yatule Beach Resort Open Water Swim, an upcoming ocean swim series and the 2010 Fiji 5K National Open Water Swimming Championships

Yatule (known as the selar crumenophthalmus) is a type of fish, excellent for meals, that shoals in the area for only a couple of months each year.

Natadola Beach, on the west coast of Viti Levu, the largest island in Fiji and home to a large majority of Fiji’s population, is a 45-minute drive from the Nadi International Airport.

A truly beautiful setting for a gentle, clear-water open water swim where the competition will undoubtedly heat up later this year.
