Culture & Travel Tips
Best Time to Visit
May to October offers the driest weather and comfortable temperatures averaging 25°C. This is peak season with higher prices. November to April is wetter and warmer but offers excellent surfing conditions and fewer tourists.
Cultural Notes
Fijian culture centers on community and respect. When visiting villages, dress modestly (cover shoulders and knees), remove hats and sunglasses, and bring a sevusevu (gift of kava root). Accept kava when offered - it's a sign of welcome. Sundays are observed quietly.
Insider Tips
Fiji operates on "Fiji time" - relax and go with the flow. Book inter-island transfers in advance, especially for remote resorts. Bring reef-safe sunscreen to protect coral. Cash is preferred on outer islands - bring FJD from the mainland.
