Many travel to Fiji for the climate. The country is warm all year with temperatures in the mid-20’s in the summers and high teens in the winters.

May to October is peak travel season to Fiji and aligns with the dry season. The cool temperatures and dry air allow for lower levels of humidity which make it pleasant to spend time outside.

Fiji also experiences a cyclone season from November to April.

In the event that a natural disaster occurs updates are transmitted through local radio and television stations. Most coastal resorts and hotels have tsunami evacuation plans. Carefully follow staff if a disaster occurs.

Crime in Fiji occurs at a higher rate in urban areas than in rural areas. Tourists should stay alert regardless of their surroundings while travelling. It is also recommended that tourists ask hotel staff about areas to avoid.

In Fiji, hotel theft, purse snatching, and pick-pocketing are the most common crimes again tourists. The rate of sexual assaults against female tourists has gone up in recent years. No tourist should ever walk alone at night and any desolate and/or poorly lit area should be avoided.

Never share a taxi with someone you don’t know and never let your taxi driver pick anyone else up.

While Fiji’s chain of islands are all a sight to behold, the island of Taveuni has a national park you won’t want to miss. Bouma National Heritage Park covers more than 80% of the island. This protects the island from being developed and helps maintain its natural beauty.

The park offers a wide variety of sights and activities for visitors. It is most known for its magnificent waterfalls that reach eight stories high. These waterfalls are accessible in many ways. One waterfall can be reached by taking a leisurely 10-minute walk down a paved path. Reaching other waterfalls on the island requires a bit more effort. So, if you’re a hiker or an unhurried walker, you can find it here.

Here are some essential items to consider bringing on your trip to Fiji:

  • Insect repellent to protect against mosquitoes bites and infection.
  • Modest clothing for visiting the Fijian villages.
  • Sunscreen with 30+ SPF
