Action Asia - February-March 2018

PRACTICALITIES

When to go

Fiji is a year-round dive destination.

June through October is the dry season,

with the clearest water, but it can be

windy and water temps can drop to

around 23°C. The wet season runs from

December to April with generally less

wind aside from occasional typhoons.

Water temps are around 28°C. The

transitional months of November and

May are often favoured times to go.

How to get there

Fiji Airways fly to the city of Nadi on

Viti Levu from many major Asian cities.

From there it takes two to three hours to

reach VoliVoli Resort.

What to take

Use a 5mm wetsuit, even in warm-water

conditions, because the currents here

often draw up colder ‘deep water’.
