All of it in some form leaves behind an array of river sculpture on the history of our blue planet. A few river rats had warned me I was in for a visual shock. In truth, however, nothing could have prepared me for a passage through time down this river that locals say connects them to their ancestors.
He had to be, right? I chalked it up to a fish story of sorts, or a river tale if you will. On the first two miles of my trip down the Upper Navua, I quickly realize Nate is an understated man. Waterfalls and a misty spray dance from the jungle above, keeping this oasis gurgling and glistening with life.
Beyond the jaw-dropping beauty, something else lured me here. The Upper Navua River is protected.
Beaches & Coastal Activities
And that is unusual for these parts. Created in by Rivers Fiji —a rafting company Nate and Kelly started in , with George Wendt, late founder of OARS—and an alliance of nine local land-owning families, two villages, a logging company and a government entity, it is one of the only protected rivers in the South Pacific. That may not sound so unusual, but keep in mind that in the developing world natural resources are often the quickest ticket to economic development.
Or at least, that is the sales pitch communities in places like Fiji constantly hear: For most, especially those living hand to mouth, that is a tough sales pitch to say no to. But she maintains a long-term perspective. They just showed the local Fijians what was in their backyard.
Tourists can run day trips down the upper gorge , which boasts one of the longest navigable slot canyons in the world, roughly miles long.

Each river bend offers a new hidden, velvet gorge that beckons exploration. We spend one glorious hot, rainy day gliding up one to find an amphitheater where two foot falls weave together in a stately, polished palace. The roar of tropical cascades echoes throughout the tight canyon and inside my head. The beauty is almost haunting.

Soaking wet, I stand gazing upward at the metronome rhythm of the falls crashing down on my face. It comes in waves—light caressing splashes then thumping bursts. When I step out from the torrent, I see Moses and another guide Basilio dancing, singing and hollering in joy under the other cascade. I holler at them and we all giggle like children, uncontrollably. The laughter is muted by the magical sound of rushing, green water and mist that surrounds us.
It rivals any Hollywood special effects studio. We float down the miniature tributary in our lifejackets to our rafts waiting on the larger Navua. Our waterfall tributary, as remarkable and unbelievable as it is, is just one of 53 mapped tributaries within the Upper Navua Conservation Area. I realize I would need a year, or more likely, a lifetime, to explore a fraction of this landscape.
As we move downstream we near the villages of Waibogi and Wainadiro and we start to see locals fishing for prawns and eels, mostly women. Moses starts to sing again, this time for the women on the banks it seems. Everyone seems to know him. Before I arrived, I heard stories that a Chinese company was the one looking to dam the Navua or possibly the neighboring Namosi Valley to store water for a copper mine. I find little information about the proposal and Fijians are leery to discuss it in detail—fear perhaps.
As we float downstream, I ask Basilio, who is paddling an inflatable kayak if he thinks the rumor is true and if so, if it could happen. Before he answers an explosion of screams erupts downstream.
Just ahead I see a posse of kids running, screaming and jumping into the river. At first I think they are trying to get our attention but then I notice, as we float closer, they are playing their national sport, rugby, in the river. A mix of teenage boys and girls are producing an orchestra of laughter as they run, pass, dive and tackle on a sandy beach.
They have voted for this—to keep this river like this.
