The Maritime Safety Authority of Fiji has lifted restrictions that were placed on ships and vessels since last Wednesday. The restrictions came ahead of Severe Tropical Cyclone Yasa which hit the country last Thursday.
The Category 5 storm left four people dead with the northern island of Vanua Levu bearing the full brunt of Yasa.
However, restrictive travel would remain for the Lau, Kadavu and Lomaiviti groups.
The maritime authority said any travels to these islands must be approved by the National Disaster Management Office (NDMO).
