When to visit

The best time to visit Fiji is during the dry season, which runs from May to October. During this time, the weather is warm and sunny with less rainfall. The wet season, from November to April, brings higher temperatures and occasional tropical storms. However, even during the wet season, Fiji still offers plenty of sunshine and enjoyable activities.

Getting around

Getting around Fiji is relatively easy. Domestic flights are available between the main islands, and there are also ferry services connecting the islands. Taxis and rental cars are available for transportation within the islands. Many resorts and hotels also offer shuttle services for their guests. For shorter distances, local buses and taxis are convenient options.

Traveller tips

Pack lightweight and breathable clothing, as Fiji has a tropical climate. Don't forget to bring sunscreen, a hat, and insect repellent. Respect the local customs and traditions, such as covering your shoulders and knees when visiting villages. Try the local cuisine, including traditional Fijian dishes like kokoda (marinated raw fish) and lovo (food cooked in an underground oven). Take part in a kava ceremony, a traditional Fijian ritual where kava, a mildly sedative drink, is consumed. Explore the underwater world by snorkeling or diving to witness the vibrant marine life and coral reefs.
