Fiji is known for its tropical climate, with rainfall and warm to high temperatures throughout the year. July to September brings the lowest rainfall and the lowest temperatures, making this period the most comfortable time to be in Fiji. The number of tourists rise during these months, however, and the same goes for the price of accommodation. To avoid the crowds and enjoy cheaper hotel rates, book cheap flights to Fiji between the months of October, May and June.

Health & Safety

Make sure to get all the routine vaccinations four to six weeks before you depart from South Africa. Other diseases to beware of include hepatitis A, typhoid, hepatitis B, dengue and elephantiasis. There is no risk of yellow fever in Fiji, however, the local government requires proof of yellow fever vaccination if you are travelling from a country where yellow fever is a risk.

Stay close to the resorts in Suva and Nadi, as crime can become a problem once you are away from these areas. At night, stick to the hotel grounds, as there have been several reports of criminal activity.

When at the beaches, make sure to have your belongings secured, as some of the villages in Fiji have a tradition for sharing, and you may find your clothing was ‘borrowed’.

Homosexuality is not widely accepted in Fiji. Be careful when showing displays of affection in public.
