Local facts
Suva became the capital of Fiji in 1877 when the original capital, Levuka, proved too restrictive geographically. The shift to Suva allowed for more development opportunities and better access to the Pacific Ocean.
Suva enjoys a tropical rainforest climate, with warm temperatures and high humidity year-round.
The Fiji Museum in Suva houses a remarkable collection of artifacts, including traditional Fijian art, historical documents, and archaeological finds.
Suva does not observe Daylight Saving Time, so the time remains consistent throughout the year.
