Pick a month and how long you've got. We'll suggest places in season for your level and which boards to pack.
Summer is the time: clean, glassy sets, warm water and northeast cyclone pulses. Main Beach and Tay Street suit learners; Arataki is quieter.
Fiji's summer is low season: smaller, cleaner waves, 28°C water and empty line-ups. The best time to learn or build confidence in the tropics.
Late-summer cyclone swells from the tropics, and warm water. Wainui and Makorori suit most levels.
Surfable all year. Autumn brings the best groundswell with fewer people; spring and early summer settle into fun, chest-high waves. Strong rips, so surf between the flags or with mates.
Cyclone season brings the famous points to life. Crowded, but the waves are worth it.
Longboard heaven. When a cyclone swell wraps in, the national park points run for ages.
