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.

Fiji also experiences a cyclone season from November to April.

Crime in Fiji occurs at a higher rate in urban areas than in rural areas. Tourists should stay alert regardless of their surroundings whilst 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.

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.
  • Sun cream with 30+ SPF

If you are in Fiji and have an emergency (for example, been attacked, arrested or someone has died) contact the nearest consular services. Contact the embassy before arrival if you have additional questions on entry requirements, safety concerns or are in need of assistance.
