Fiji Weather
As NAI'A prepares to depart for our 21st season of humpback whale swimming expeditions in Tonga, Fiji's water temperature is just about average and will continue to cool steadily for the next two months. Currently the water temperature is below 79°F (26°C). Most of our divers are wearing 5mm full wetsuits but a few of the brave are comfortable in 3mm full. Bring more layers if you feel the cold! For those of you joining us in Tonga, prepare for water 1-2°C cooler than in Fiji.
