We love Fiji and could go on for ages extolling the virtues of the wonderful warm climate, crystal clear waters and world reknowned Fijian hospitality. We know a lot about Octopus Resort but here's what the experts say about Fiji and the South Pacific region Facts from The Lonely Planet Website for the Traveller Visas: Most travellers will automatically be issued a four week tourist visa upon arrival. This includes travellers from most Commonwealth countries, most North, South and Central American countries, Western Europe, Israel and Japan. The visa is issued free of charge and you won't have to pay for any subsequent extensions. Health risks: Dengue fever - no prophylactic is available for this mosquito-spread disease. Avoid mosquito bites (especially during epidemics). When to Come Its mild tropical climate means that Fiji can be enjoyed all year round and it is a popular escape from the winters in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Perhaps the best time to go, however, is in the dry season or 'Fiji winter', from May to October. This time of year has cooler temperatures, less rainfall and humidity, and less risk of tropical cyclones. National Holidays
