A perfect beach destination, Fiji sees temperatures in the range of 78°F to 88°F throughout the year.
The islands of Fiji experience a typical tropical weather system – with a cool, dry period that runs from May to October that the locals refer to as winter and a wet season that runs from November to March. Fiji sees the maximum number of tourists in July and August. Warmer temperatures and humid conditions characterize the wet season. Rain showers during the wet months are typically heavy but short lived. Cyclones are not uncommon during this time.
The bigger islands of Viti Levu and Vanua Levu receive significantly more rainfall than the smaller islands. Due to the trade winds, the capital Suva, which is on the south-eastern side of Viti Levu, sees a lot more rain than the northern parts of the island.
With endless beaches to explore and water activities to try out, swimsuits need to be an essential part of your luggage. High SPF sunscreen, sunglasses, and sun hats are also a must. If you are planning to spend most of your time on the beach, a tote bag will prove useful. Also, remember to pack a sarong or cover-up as you shift from the poolside to the lunch table to the beachside. While flip flops work well for the beach, you will need walking shoes if you are planning to hike or explore the interiors. Do remember to dress modestly while visiting the villages on the islands – tops covering the shoulders and knee-length shorts or dresses are recommended.
While the months from November to March see the maximum rainfall, it can also rain outside of these months. It is best to carry good quality rainwear for times when you might get caught in a sudden downpour. Also, pack a light shawl or cardigan for those windy evenings that might bring about a slight chill.
