Fiji has both liveaboard and land-based diving available. There are a number of first class and mid-range resorts catering exclusively to divers throughout the Fiji Islands. The wettest months in terms of rainfall and humidity are January and February. Summer water temperature averages 80 to 83 degrees F and 78 to 80 F during the winter months. An east southwest trade wind blows for most of the year usually dropping in the evening and picking up in the mid-morning.
Most experienced divers bring their own regulators and BCDs at the minimum.
Wet suits, vests or dive skins are highly recommended. Certification Experienced divers should bring your C-card and divers log. For beginners, the warm waters and equally warm hospitality make Fiji an ideal place to earn your PADI certification. It's also less expensive to do in Fiji than in North America, Europe, Australia, or New Zealand.
