What should I pack for Fiji in March?

  • High-factor sun cream

    With daytime highs around 31°C, burn time is short even in shade.

  • Sunglasses and a brimmed hat

    Midday glare is the part people underpack for, not the heat itself.

  • Loose cotton or linen

    Synthetics stop working once you are sweating through them all day.

  • A refillable water bottle

    Daily highs this warm need roughly double the water a temperate day does.

  • A proper waterproof, not a folding umbrella

    351 mm in the month usually arrives as heavy bursts that an umbrella will not cover.

  • A dry bag for phone and documents

    Worth it for one downpour caught between the taxi and the door.
