Fiji

Fiji Mamanuca Islands Remote Beach Club

Fiji is an island nation in the South Pacific occupying an archipelago of over 300 islands. It has a fascinating cultural blend of Melanesian, Polynesian, Indian and Chinese, mixed with a little European colonial history. With its main islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, playing home to the majority of the population, this leaves many of the other islands of Fiji uncrowded for you to explore.

Climate

The Pacific region covers a vast area and so there are a variety of climates, monsoons, winds and therefore sailing seasons in different destinations.

However, the climate in the South Pacific is universally tropical, with year round warm weather and varying levels of humidity. The equatorial proximity means that daylight hours are close to 12 hours all year round. There are few fluctuations in the typical daytime temperatures of 24-31°C throughout the year, and only a drop of a few degrees at night.

For more detail on the climate and sailing seasons, please refer to the individual destination pages.
