Earthquakes in Fiji — February 2026

18 earthquakes were recorded in Fiji during February 2026, an average of 0.6 per day.

18 reached magnitude 4 or above and 3 reached magnitude 5 or above. The average focal depth was 551 km.

The month's largest event in Fiji was a magnitude 6.2 earthquake near Fiji region on 10 February 2026 at 20:44 UTC. A magnitude 6.2 earthquake radiates roughly 30,089 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

That is close to the Fiji monthly average of 15 events over the period we cover, and up from the 8 recorded the previous month.

0% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 0% intermediate (70–300 km) and 100% deep-focus (over 300 km). That proportion of deep-focus events is the signature of a subduction zone: only a cold slab descending into the mantle stays brittle enough to rupture at those depths.

By band, the catalogue holds 15 in the magnitude 4 range, 2 in the magnitude 5 range, 1 in the magnitude 6 range.

Activity peaked on 28 February, when 3 events were recorded.

The month's largest events were M6.2 near Fiji region on 10 February at 511 km; M5.1 near Labasa, Fiji on 18 February at 532 km; M5.1 near Levuka, Fiji on 12 February at 555 km.

That is 24% above the 15 events Fiji averages per month across the 21 months on record.
