About Fiji
Fiji became independent in 1970. Fiji is the product of volcanic mountains and warm tropical waters. It's majestic and ever-varied coral reefs draw tourists from around the world. Fiji has over 300 islands in its archipelago, each fringed with coral reefs and lapped by warm azure waters.
Climate of Fiji
Its mild tropical climate means that Fiji can be enjoyed all year round and it is a popular escape from the winters in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Perhaps the best time to go, however, is in the dry season or 'Fiji winter', from May to October. This time of year has cooler temperatures, less rainfall and humidity, and less risk of tropical cyclones. Fiji's true magic lies in its people and the fascinating blend of their diverse cultures. Today Fiji is a land of tropical rain-forests, coconut plantations, fine beaches, fire cleared hills.
