Fiji’s Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best time of year to visit Fiji?
The best time to visit Fiji is from May to September, when the weather is cooler, drier and less humid - ideal for beach days and outdoor activities.
For fewer crowds and better deals, consider February to April, though it’s warmer with occasional rain.
Peak travel times for Kiwis include July and September/October school holidays, so book 7 to 10 months ahead to secure the best options.
How long should I spend in Fiji?
Most New Zealand travellers spend 5 to 7 nights in Fiji for a relaxing island break.
If you want to combine mainland Fiji with island hopping (Mamanucas or Yasawas), 7 to 10 nights is ideal.
Where to go on holiday in Fiji?
Top places to consider:
- Coral Coast boasts family-friendly resorts and great snorkelling
- Denarau Island offers easy access, luxury resorts and is a great base for exploring
- Mamanuca Islands are postcard beaches with epic water sports experiences
- Yasawa Islands are more remote with untouched beauty
- Savusavu and Taveuni are popular for diving, nature and going off the beaten track
Is Fiji a good holiday destination for New Zealanders?
Yes, Fiji is one of the easiest tropical getaways for Kiwis with direct flights from Auckland, short travel times (approximately 3 hours), no major time difference and year-round warm weather.

Do I need a visa for Fiji from NZ?
No, New Zealand passport holders do not need a visa for stays up to 4 months. Ensure you have a valid passport with 6 months’ validity from the return date, plus a return onward ticket. Stay up to date with visa requirements on Safe Travel.
Where to stay in Fiji?
The best place to stay depends on your travel style. A popular choice for families is Coral Coast, Denarau and Plantation Island. Couples commonly choose Tokoriki, Matamanoa and Yasawa Island resorts for an adults only vibe. If you’re a luxury traveller, Denarau or a private island resort might suit your travel style best, while adventure seekers - Taveuni or Savusavu are perfect for off-the-beaten-path style experiences.
Do I need travel insurance for Fiji?

If travelling to outer islands, discuss strict baggage limits on domestic flights with your Fiji travel expert.
What should I wear in Fiji?
Casual, lightweight clothing is ideal. When visiting villages, dress modestly, covering shoulders and knees. Remove hats and sunglasses as a sign of respect.
Can I take food and snacks to Fiji?
Yes, but you must declare all food items on arrival.
Pre-packaged snacks are usually allowed for personal use but check Fiji Biosecurity rules before travelling.
What currency is used in Fiji and should I bring cash?
Fiji uses the Fijian Dollar (FJD). Most resorts are cashless, but it’s useful to carry cash for small purchases, local markets, taxis and tips.
Is Fiji safe for travellers from New Zealand?
Fiji is generally very safe. Use common sense – keep valuables secure, use licensed taxis or transfers and follow water safety advice.
Do I need to hire a car to get around in Fiji?
No, most travellers don’t need a car.
Resorts offer transfers, and taxis and tours are easy to arrange.
A rental car is useful if you want to explore Viti Levu at your own pace.
How can I get around Fiji without a car?
Transport options include:

Experience kaleidoscopic snorkelling and diving, island hop from one sandbank to another and visit local villages for an authentic day-in-the-life. Popularly, book a river safari on the Sigatoka River or celebrate life at the iconic Malamala Beach Club.

With 12 years in the travel industry and young kids of my own, I genuinely understand how much effort (and emotion!) goes into planning the perfect family holiday.
I specialise in creating trips that work in real life- with smart flight times, family-friendly stays, and experiences that keep everyone happy, from toddlers to teens (and parents too).
I'm here to listen, ask the right questions, and take the stress off your shoulders, so you can focus on making memories instead of managing the logistics. If you're looking for a down-to-earth consultant who treats your family getaway as if it were their own, I'd love to help plan you next escape.
