Best Season
May to October is the dry season, with the clearest water and the calmest sea. November to April is warmer and greener but brings rain and cyclones; the Yasawa mantas are around from May to October
Visa
Russian citizens need no visa: a visitor permit for up to four months is issued on arrival. A return ticket and a passport valid for six months are required. Check the transit visas of your connection — the route almost always runs through Australia, New Zealand, South Korea or the USA.
