# Crazy amounts of rain in Fiji? Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji
3travelbugs 13:18 UTC 24 Feb 2011 | Hello! My family and I have an open Circle Pacific ticket and are currently scheduled to go to Auckland for 4 nights but we're thinking Fiji or another warm tropical island will be more fun for our 3 year old. I checked the weather history of the island and it looks like March (when we are traveling - March 23-27) it is the rainiest month of the year...but the weather seems warmer there than Auckland or Sydney. Any suggestions? Is it crazy rain in March or passing showers? Any helpful advice on choosing between these 2 and/or about Fiji weather in late March would be SO appreciated! |

3travelbugs 00:22 UTC 28 Feb 2011 | Thanks, but if you read the thread title and the actual post, I was asking if there was a ton of rain in Fiji in March, as we were trying to decide between Auckland or Fiji, but were wondering if it was the "rainy" season in Fiji and wanted to know more about Fijian weather at this time of year. | 4
