The Mamanuca Islands, bure village stays and the Pacific's most joyful culture
Fiji is an archipelago of 333 islands in the South Pacific, and it delivers on every tropical island fantasy while adding something rarer: a culture of extraordinary warmth and joy that makes every visitor feel genuinely welcome. The Fijian 'Bula!' — the universal greeting — is said with a sincerity you won't find in more jaded tourist destinations. The Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands, a string of reef-fringed islands northwest of Viti Levu, offer everything from simple backpacker resorts to private island luxury. The Great Astrolabe Reef around Kadavu is considered one of the Pacific's finest dive sites.
When to go: May to October is the dry and cooler season, ideal for outdoor activities. December to April is wet season.
The best months to visit Fiji are January, February, March. Peak season is May with the best combination of warm temperatures and low rainfall.
