Fijians are being warned to prepare for huge waves to hit low lying coastal areas tonight.

Meteorologists say they're being cause by a low pressure system which is generating huge swells.

FijiLive says the situation is expected to peak at 9pm locally when high tide is due.

Huge waves have already hit the Sigatoka and the Coral Coast areas.
