Travel Tips

The best time to visit is during the dry seasons (June to October and December to February) for pleasant weather and clear waters. Pack lightweight clothing, swimwear, reef-safe sunscreen, and insect repellent. Respect local customs by dressing modestly when off the island. Stay hydrated and use bottled water. Safety is generally good, but keep valuables secure and follow guidance for marine activities. Cash in Tanzanian shillings is useful for local purchases; credit cards are accepted in some lodges and larger establishments.
