Surf transfers are to be arranged and paid for direct with reception upon arrival. Their boat can access the surrounding reef breaks (15+mins) of Cloudbreak, Namotu, Wilkes (being the main ones) as well as Swimming Pools, Desperations and Restaurants. They depart each day based around the high tides and the trips usually last between 3 – 4 hours and some days they head out twice a day if the conditions suit.

Fiji receives swell all year round from the low pressure systems that pass under New Zealand. The main swell window is generally from April through October (the dry season), but shoulder months from November through to April (the occasionally wet season) still provide exceptionally fun days.

As with most of the South Pacific, the seasonal South East “trade” winds blow (mid morning to late afternoon) from June through September as the high pressure systems move over the islands, which do give way to days in between which allow glassy or light wind days. There are breaks during these trade winds which are offshore, so the key is to hit the main breaks before the trades pick up, then surf the alternate breaks which are offshore.

The shoulder months of October through to March provide fun sized waves with breaks receiving light and variable winds producing many glassy days.

Many people prefer to travel during shoulder months of March, April, May and September, October, November, hoping to get glassy conditions with early or late south swells.
