Island Travel FAQs
What’s the best time of year to visit tropical islands like Fiji and Barbados?
Generally, the dry season is ideal: May to October for Fiji, and December to May for Barbados. Always check for rainy seasons and hurricane seasons depending on the region!
Is island hopping easy to plan yourself?
It depends! In places like Fiji or the Greek Islands, ferries and organized tours make island hopping easy. In other regions, like the San Blas Islands, booking through local agencies can be smoother.
Is island travel safe for solo travelers?
Yes, many islands are solo-travel friendly! Always research local safety tips, stay aware, and respect local customs — especially when visiting smaller or remote islands.
How do I pack for island trips?
Light, breathable clothes, reef-safe sunscreen, and water shoes are musts for tropical destinations. For cooler islands like the Faroe Islands, pack layers, waterproof gear, and good hiking shoes.
