Bua (Fijian pronunciation: [ᵐbu.a]) is one of fourteen provinces of Fiji. Located in the west of the northern island of Vanua Levu, it is one of three northern provinces, and has a land area of 1,379 square kilometers within the three main districts of Bua, Vuya and Wainunu. Its population at the 2017 census was 15,466, making it the fifth least-populous Province.[2]

Bua is governed by a Provincial Council, chaired by Ratu Filimone Ralogaivau.
