# Fiji in december Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea
WomanDane 09:12 UTC 16 Jun 2013 | Hi there I'm thinking about going to Fiji in december, but I'm a little worried about the rainy season and how heavy it can be. Any with experience about that? Thanks |

The East/South-East rains steadily throughout the year, whereas the West tends to rain a lot less (except for the wet season)... December is in the wet season and this seems to be an exception to above trend... During the wet season, the West gets a lot more rain than the East.... Sometimes it will rain heavily for maybe an hour, then sunshine, other times it will rain heavily for the entire day... Then there will also be days where it doesn't rain at all... Depends on Mother Nature... If it is raining, it is still 30+ degrees so you can still go about daily activities (just no sun baking)... December is also cyclone season.... Cyclones typically hit the west (which means lots more rain & flooding)... But again, depends on Mother Nature as some summers offer a lot less rain & no cyclones... I would still recommend visiting Fiji in December... | 2
