Why go

The spring offers a contrast to the surrounding lagoon coast. Its story connects the water with the royal eel of Lake Vaihiria, linking two landscapes across the island’s interior. Watch the water and eels, and treat accounts of purification and healing as cultural tradition rather than a promise about the water.

What to look for

  • Freshwater pools and eels
  • Legend connecting the spring with Lake Vaihiria
