Nadi in December
Not the best time
December combines peak tourist season with the return of wet season weather - expect high prices and frequent rain. The festive atmosphere partially compensates for weather challenges.
Weather
December ushers in the full wet season with high humidity and frequent heavy rainfall. Temperatures reach 30°C but feel much hotter due to oppressive moisture levels. Cyclone season officially begins, bringing unpredictable weather patterns and dramatic afternoon storms.

All Months
May through October is peak season for good reason — less rain, lower humidity, and trade winds that actually make it comfortable. July gets busy with Australian school holidays, so book ahead. November through April brings cyclone season and daily afternoon downpours, but also fewer crowds and cheaper accommodation. The rain usually hits around 2pm and clears by evening. January and February are the wettest months — skip these unless you're getting serious deals. Water temperature stays warm year-round, but visibility for snorkeling improves dramatically in the dry season.
