Leleuvia (pronounced [leleuβia]) is a coral cay in Fiji's Tailevu Province. The 68,000 m² islet is the site of the Leleuvia Island Resort, previously operated by the Chinese-Fijian businessman Emosi Yee Shaw. Only recently in early 2006 has the Island been leased by a Company called Saluwaki Limited with the intention to refurbish the island resort. Leleuvia Island is popular among beachcombers and kite surfers.

There used to be a dive shop on the island; now dive trips are organised via Ovalau Watersports in Levuka. There is still excellent snorkelling directly from the beach. Many travellers have come for three days and ended up staying three weeks or longer.
