Fiji
Among the more than three hundred islands lie extensive reefs, some of them charted imprecisely; eyeball navigation with the sun high is not a recommendation here but a requirement. From November to April cyclones pass through, and the sheltered places in the rivers at Vuda and Denarau are then in demand.

Berths, season and winter storage
The safe season is May to September with berths in the middle price band. For the cyclone season there are special pits at Vuda where boats are set into the ground; many insurers recognise this as a protective measure. Yards are available on Viti Levu.
What this means for your policy
Fiji belongs to the cruising range for the Pacific and South Seas. Before the season, clarify whether your policy contains a cyclone exclusion and which berth counts as safe. Also check whether reef contact and the salvage that follows are covered without a special agreement.
