Kadavu has a typical tropical climate with the winter months being May to September and the summer being October to April.

Summertime is usually characterised by calm settled weather. Its calm, hot and humid which is great for spotting birds working tuna or finding current or weed lines for mahi mahi, tuna and billfish. The highest water temperature is about 30 degrees and the hottest month is usually March with the first cooling from the tropical heat starting mid-April.

Bite Me usually concentrates of the offshore heavy tackle fishing in summer months though the popper casting for GTs in the barrier reef breakers is also excellent.

In winter time, Fiji experiences the SE trade winds. These trades vary in strength from a light breeze to a 20kt blow and usually last about 5-6 days followed by a couple of days of light Northerly winds before the next trade starts.

A strong trade wind can limit the small game boat to fishing inside the barrier reef however the big game boat simply fishes the lee side of the island and barrier reef. The air temperature generally reaches a low of about 20 degrees in August / September with the lowest water temperature being about 24 degrees.

Winter is our big Wahoo & Sailfish light tackle season.
