Fiji welcomed more than 1.06 million tourists into the country last year, breaking the one million mark for the first time.

This has been confirmed by Tourism Fiji CEO Brent Hill, who says over 80,000 tourists arrived into Fiji via cruise ships in 2024.

He says this is in addition to the more than 980,000 counted and announced each month who arrive via the airport.

Hill says 2025 is off to a great start as we hit peak cruising season.

He says this week Fiji welcomed the Crown Princess and MS Europa to Fiji and significantly , MS Europa visited Taveuni.

The CEO says there were over 5,000 passenger on these vessels.

Hill says the significant koro that springs up around the ships, and the work that goes into shore excursions does not happen by chance.

He says a large team of hard working people across various organisations in Fiji ensures guests have a safe and wonderful time in Fiji, and as much spend as possible comes into Fiji from these shore excursions, tours, shopping and visits.

Hill adds its a significant industry for Fiji, and it is great to see the benefits flowing out to more of Fiji’s beautiful islands and villages, and tourism businesses.
