Travelling to Fiyi: what to know before you go

Fiji is an archipelago of more than three hundred islands in the South Pacific, known for coral reefs, white-sand islands, warm hospitality and the greeting 'Bula'. Most visitors stay on the main island of Viti Levu or the small islands of the Mamanucas and Yasawas, while Taveuni and Kadavu offer rainforest and some of the best diving in the region. It suits beach and island holidays, families, divers and honeymooners.

Where to go

• Mamanuca Islands. A group of small, sandy islands a short boat ride from Nadi and Port Denarau, with calm lagoons, snorkelling reefs and island resorts.
• Yasawa Islands. A chain of volcanic islands stretching north-west from the Mamanucas, served by a daily catamaran.
• Taveuni. The 'Garden Island' is covered in rainforest, with Bouma National Heritage Park's waterfalls and hiking trails.
• Beqa Lagoon. Off the south coast of Viti Levu, Beqa Lagoon is known for shark dives with bull sharks and other species.

Best time to visit

The drier, cooler season from roughly May to October is the most popular time to visit, with sunny days, lower humidity and good diving visibility. The wetter, hotter season from November to April brings heavy showers and the risk of cyclones, particularly from December to March, but also quieter resorts.

Staying online in Fiyi

Mobile coverage is good in Nadi, Suva, Lautoka and other towns on Viti Levu and along the main roads, and available on many populated islands. Coverage weakens or disappears on remote islands, in the interior highlands and out at sea. Many resorts offer Wi-Fi, though on outer islands it can be slow or limited to public areas. Install an eSIM before you fly and switch it on when you land so you have data for transfers and bookings.
