When to go
If planning for Fiji honeymoon you need to find out what time of year will suit your visit. However, the seasonal variations in Fiji are not extreme, and temperatures stay pretty constant through the whole year. Peak season occurs between July and September when the weather is dry and sunny. For a Fiji honeymoon experience that you have always dreamed of, the best time to visit is from July to September, but you will have to bear with sky-high prices. Late September or late March, is also ideal for a romantic experience, the moon is full, and the dark silhouettes of the mountains are outstanding. During sunset the sun rays reflect off the bays to bring out the deepest color shades in the waters. Also, expect typical low temperatures ranging from 70 to 80 degrees depending on the season but usually make for some relaxed evenings.
