Weather in Fiji

Situated in the south Pacific, all Fiji islands have an ideal tropical climate. The trade winds blow almost all the year through, providing a cool breeze. The rain season with short and strong rains lasts from the end of November to April. During this period hurricanes and cyclones are highly probable. The temperatures reach a maximum point of 30 degrees Celsius during this time; the climate is hot and humid. The best time for a travel to Fiji is the dry period between May and October with air temperatures between 20 and 26 degrees Celsius. Around the islands of Polynesia, the sailing conditions are usually very good with moderate or cool winds. From April to June as well as in September and October steady trade winds from the south-east blow with the speed of 3-4 Beaufort. The winds are usually stronger in July and August. Within the lagoons you can sail quite relaxed, having ideal sailing conditions without any big waves.
