Weather in November
- Dry west · Nadi, Denarau, Mamanuca and Yasawa islandsfine
The rain shadow of Viti Levu's mountains: sunniest part of the country. Dec–Mar is humid with heavy showers and cyclone risk; winter nights near 18 °C.
- Wet south-east · Suva, Pacific Harbour, Kadavufine
Trade winds bring rain all year; Suva gets about twice Nadi's rainfall. Drier Jul–Sep.
- Coral Coast · Sigatoka to Pacific Harbour on the Queens Roadfine
Between the two: sunnier than Suva, windier than the Mamanucas.
- North · Vanua Levu (Savusavu, Labasa), Taveunifine
Taveuni's east coast is among the wettest places in Fiji; diving visibility is best in the drier months.
