FIJI Holidays – Frequently Asked Questions 

Do I need a visa to travel to Fiji ?

Most Passport Holders are allowed to enter Fiji where a Visitor Permit will be issued on arrival at Fiji International Airport, at Immigration Clearance. This Visitor Permit will allow a tourist visitor up to 4 months of stay. An onward or return confirmed air ticket departing Fiji is required, and your passport must have at least 6 months validity after your departure from Fiji.

What is the best time or best months to holiday in Fiji?

Best time or months to travel to Fiji is Year-Round, but let’s drill down on this as “best” can mean different things to people. In terms of weather, Fiji has a dry & wet season although with climate change, patterns are definitely changing.

The dry season is May through September, and the wet season where humidity is high is November through March. Cyclone season is generally December - February, although they can appear a month or two outside of this. Sunlight hours are longer, and sea temperatures are warmer October - April, and shorter & cooler May through September.

So, travelling to Fiji December – February, there will generally be regular rain, high humidity, warm seas, longer days, and cyclone risk. Travelling May – September there will be regular sunshine, cooler seas, moderate humidity, shorter days, and occasional storms. Our recommendation for the best time weather-wise to travel Fiji is in the shoulder seasons of March - May & September – October.

When is the best time to visit Fiji during School Holidays ?

For this Q&A we define the New Zealand school holidays as April, July, September, and Christmas. Fiji is a VERY family friendly destination in very high demand during school holidays, from both New Zealand and Australia, and is considered Peak Season. You will need to book early, especially for travel in July, to get the best resorts and the best prices – even a year or two before your intended travel dates, and prices will generally be at their highest. April & September school holidays are good in terms of weather (see Best Months above), availability, and pricing, but remember it is still Peak Season. Christmas school holidays cover nearly 2 months, with the actual Christmas Peak Season being late December to mid-January.

We want to avoid children in Fiji, is this possible ?

Yes, it is. Fiji has a number of Adult Only resorts, and some bigger resorts separate their family offering from their couples offering, keeping them as separate as possible. Also remember to travel outside the Peak school holidays of April, July, late Sep/Oct, and the 2 Peak weeks over Christmas and New Years. Some Adult Only Resorts do have Kids Weeks during the NZ & Australian school holidays, so do be careful. Fiji Honeymoons are very special and our Fiji Resorts often offer special “honeymoon inclusions” to help you celebrate your special occasion. Our Fiji Holiday Specialists can advise you the best adult only options, which you can view here

We want to get married in Fiji, is this possible ?

Yes you can and our sister brand Our Weddings, specialises in Fiji Weddings and Fiji Elopements. Fiji can be much more cost effective than having your celebration in New Zealand, and our preferred wedding resorts provide excellent value wedding and elopement packages. The travelling party can be just the lucky couple with or without immediate or close family, right through to wedding groups of up to 100 guests. We are managing more and more weddings, and can help you through what can be a logistical challenge, and our involvement can be tailored to suit you, depending how hands-on you want to be (or not). For full details head to Our Fiji Weddings

Can you fly direct from New Zealand to Fiji ?

Yes, there are many direct flights from New Zealand to Fiji provided by Air New Zealand and Fiji Airways. From Auckland there are daily direct flights to/ex Nadi (approx 3 hours), and in most cases multiple flights daily. From Christchurch & Wellington there are direct flights to/ex Nadi (approx 4 hours) flying Fiji Airways, operating 2 – 4 days per week depending on demand.

Where should I go on my Fiji holiday ?


Fiji’s Micro Climates
Fiji’s Western Islands, including Nadi, Denarau, Mamanuca, Yasawa, and the Sunshine Coast (north Vitu Levu) enjoy more sunshine than other parts of Fiji. The downside is they can be quite barren, with drought like visuals and brown hillsides. From the middle of the main island Vitu Levu and further east, you enter their wetter regions with regular rain giving more lush forests and a more tropical feel.


Denarau
Perfect for an “Easy Fly & Flop” resort pool holiday (where you’re likely to run into someone you know). Multiple 4 – 5 star resorts of various international brands, with Denarau Island operating like a gated community. It can also be a great base to explore the Mamanuca Island by daytrips and mainland-based activity tours. Good range of dining options, kids clubs & activities, marina & retail hub. Beaches are similar to a city beach in Auckland, so to experience the better beaches and crystal clear water, you would need to travel to the outer islands.


Mamanuca Islands
Famous for the crystal-clear water, palm trees, and sand between the toes holiday. Good access from the Denarau Marina and elsewhere with many options available by air or sea, and our experienced Travel Advisors can help you navigate the best options for you. Can by tricky connecting same day with arrival & departure flights, sometimes requiring an overnight in Nadi or Denarau, and again our Travel Advisors can help here. Full range of island resorts, from standard 3 star through to deluxe 5 star. This is where we can really help, working with you to choose the best resorts, availability, and prices for you.


Yasawa Islands
Pristine and remote, the Yasawa’s are quickly becoming the goto for New Zealanders. Delivering stunning tropical island experiences with a growing range of quality resorts. Choosing the right resort for you, and coordinating the best transfer options can be tricky, so please enure you consult with our Travel Advisors for the best options for you.


Coral Coast
Leaving Nadi along the southwest coast of the main Vitu Levu island, you will travel along the delightful and scenic coastal “Queens” road to your resort. The Coral Coast resorts we recommend start from approximately the Shangri-la Fijian through to the Warwick Fiji and are generally in the more lush, tropical and potentially wetter south and east side of Vitu Levu, Fiji. There are beautiful sandy beaches, however with the outer reef quite close to shore, there are limited opportunities for ocean swimming. Generally, you will need to take excursions available through the resorts (charges will apply) to enjoy crystal clear swimming & snorkelling. There are limited local transport & eating options, therefore again in general, a Coral Coast holiday is centered around your resort. A rental car will provide freedom to independently explore and experience this area and towards Suva.


Northern Fiji – Vanua Levu
We recently visited and explored areas of Northern Fiji (Vanua Levu) and we loved it. We know its cliché but its true, this is Fiji 20 to 30 years ago with opportunity for real immersion in the local culture and community. We have a range of recommended good quality resorts, one in particular has we believe, the best children’s (older teens & younger) programme in the entire South Pacific. Fiji’s north has a very colonial feel and offers lush tropical forests, beautiful beaches, and amazing snorkelling and diving. Ocean swimming in front of the resorts can be limited, so generally you will need to take excursions available through the resorts (charges will apply).


When is the cheapest time to go to Fiji ?

Fiji Airfares & Fiji Hotels are now predominantly dynamically priced and fluctuate depending on demand, which is usually managed by proven demand algorithms. This means that in high demand prices will go high, and in low demand prices will drop. Demand to Fiji from New Zealand is lowest in November - 15 December (approx) and mid January – March, and therefore these will be the cheapest times to travel to Fiji.     

Is Fiji expensive and how can I best manage our costs in Fiji ?

Fiji can be expensive, but there are a few tricks to manage costs whilst there, or at least manage them within your expectations. Here’s some tips …


Fiji Currency & paying direct by Credit Card
Remember the Fiji dollar is weaker than the NZ dollar, with approx NZ$1 converting to approx FJ$1.35, so please keep this in mind when looking at costs in FJ$ as they will be approximately 25% cheaper in NZ$. A significant risk is paying your hotel by credit card as they will charge you a Credit Card Fee (often 3% or higher) and your banks will make the currency exchange at the worst possible rate (to you). The best way around this is to prepay a fixed NZD price before you travel for your accommodation, transfers, and food & beverage (see All Inclusive below), and take some FJ$ spending cash with you, getting the best possible rate with the currency traders here in NZ before you go – whatever you do, don’t use the airport currency traders as their FX rates are terrible. Be wary of any online FX rates quoted as in general you won’t be able to secure these quoted FX rates when you actually go to buy your FJ$ - we estimate the actual FX rate you will be able to secure will cost you between 5% - 10% more. Same goes for online travel agencies and hotels direct, who publish their “estimated NZD price” based on the local Fiji FJ$ hotel rate. In these cases, when you go to pay in local currency at checkout, you will incur their credit card fees, and a variable and terrible “FX rate of the checkout day”, which we have estimated to be a surcharge of between 5% - 10% on top of prices quoted online at time of booking.   


Fiji All Inclusive

Going All Inclusive of meals at resorts can be a great way to deliver both value and managing your cost expectations. Often meal plans come with flexibility when you’re there should you want to step outside the standard inclusions and enjoy something special. We find including breakfast & dinner a great way to go, given you may just want something light or nothing at all for lunch. Heavy drinkers should consider All Inclusive alcohol packages, while light to moderate drinkers should pay as you go, with a bottle of your favourite picked up at duty free either when you leave NZ or arrive in Nadi, costs are similar.


Fiji Family Holidays – Kids Stay, Eat, Play Free 
If you’re travelling as a family with children under 12 (so aged 11 years and under at time of travel) at certain resorts you may be able to take advantage of “Fiji Kids Stay, Eat, Play Free” programmes. This means your kids if they qualify can a) Stay means share your room for free, subject to existing bedding and room maximums b) Eat means they can eat from the Kids Menu for free, often at set dining times and provided adults pay to eat too and c) Play means they can access the Kids activities for free. Each participating resort offers different packages, different age brackets & maximum number of kids per room, so please connect with our Fiji Holiday Specialists to choose the best one for you.

How much does a trip to Fiji cost?

Fiji can be expensive, especially if you don’t know what you are doing and try and do everything yourself directly with the hotel. Suppliers are not looking out for your best interests; they are looking after theirs. As a Fiji Holiday Specialist our job is to find you the best options at the best price, depending on your individual requirements and we offer an unbiased non-incentivised view on the best value for money for you. For the latest costs to holiday in Fiji, please visit our latest Fiji Holidays Deals.

What internet connections are available in Fiji and what’s Fiji stance on  Digital Nomad travel ?

Major NZ Telco’s have cost effective roaming packages for Fiji, allowing reasonably good internet access throughout Fiji (make sure you set up roaming before you go). Most Fiji Resorts offer varying degrees of free Wi-Fi within their resorts and rooms. There are also local sim card resellers, however we have found these to be a little tricky and somewhat unreliable – for short term stays, we recommend roaming. While there is not a specific Digital Nomad Visa, travelers can enter Fiji on a tourist visa and work remotely for overseas employers for up to four months, which can be extended by a further 2 months by application and if accepted, payment of a fee.

Why should I book my Fiji Holiday with Our Pacific ?
