Lautoka is the second largest city of Fiji. It is in the west of the island of Viti Levu, 24 kilometers north of Nadi, and is the second port of entry in Fiji, after Suva. Fiji's second-largest city has been dubbed the Sugar City, given the importance of this crop. According to legend, Lautoka derives its name from a battle cry that means 'spear-hit'.
