One interesting thing about Savusavu is it’s in a thermally active area and has steamy hot springs. The hot springs themselves are located in the small medical facility near town, but there are outlets along the shore and steam can be seen rising from the beach and the stream near town. The Hot Springs Hotel is on a hill just above town.
Unfortunately, Savusavu is not a good location for hot springs. At its coolest, Savusavu is still pretty warm. I can’t imagine anyone would have the slightest desire to go sit in hot water, especially in a medical facility. People who stay at the Hot Springs Hotel prefer to sit by the pool and enjoy the breezy deck on the hillside.
I think the these steamy sights around Savusavu are the closest most people get to experiencing the hot springs. –Cyndi
