If all you want to do is sit under a palm tree and never see another person, Tuvalu is waiting to fulfill your every desire. One of the smallest and most remote nations in the world, Tuvalu offers a peaceful experience ideal for rest and relaxation.
Covered with coconut palm trees, white sand beaches and large lagoons, you can walk the beaches soaking in nature's beauty. Whether you choose to stay at a pampering hotel or a hideaway guesthouse, you will find that your every need is anticipated.
The vastness of the ocean is broken by only the natural flora of the islands. The nine islands are very small and separated by significant distances of water. Enjoy fishing with the residents. Visit the remains of World War II planes and venture into a well-preserved underground bunker. Or head off land and dive the beautiful coral reefs. At night, enjoy the vibrant traditional dancing and bountiful feasts. Then relax under a Pacific moon.
With the hectic world far away, you will never want to leave paradise.
