Best Time to Travel to Fiji

The best time to travel to Fiji is between the months of April until early October. During this time the sun is not right on top of your head frying your noggin and the humidity is not as stifling as compared to other months in the year. One more thing to look forward to during these months is that you won't be expecting any rain showers because it's not the rainy season. So from April to October Fiji's climate is just right.

Visiting Fiji

In April, May and October the temperature of the water in Fiji is not too hot but also not too cold, which it does become in June up to September, so it's perfect for swimming.

If you want to avoid hot, humid climate then don't come to Fiji in November until March. During these months the sweltering heat can be quite unbearable. Also, during this time the wet season will arrive so expect some rain showers every now and then.

Although, the best time to travel to Fiji is from April to October what you're planning to do there should dictate when you should go there. So if you're a diver looking for newest dive spot then Fiji is perfect for you during the winter months. When it's winter Fiji's waters have the highest visibility, making it easy for you to navigate your way underwater and easy to see all the beautiful undersea growth. Winter months is also a good time to do some land activities in Fiji. If you're into biking, hiking, trekking through forests or rappelling then go to Fiji during winter for good visibility and a cool climate.

If you just want to snorkel in the sea then the summer months is perfect for you to travel to Fiji because the waves are not too choppy and the water's temperature is just fine. Water temperature during summer months rises to 27 to 30 degrees centigrade, so it's still comfortable enough to swim in. Since the water this time of the year is warmer and calmer it increases plankton growth which can hamper divers' visibility. But the warm water can attract manta rays swimming in large groups so that is definitely something worth seeing if you go snorkeling this time of the year.

Fiji is a wonderful place to visit in April until October and you could avoid the blistering heat in summer if you wish, but if you have something specific in mind that you want to do here then there is always a time that is perfect for any kind of activity.
